Cal Hubbard had a '55 Bowman as a mlb umpire and was an All American and pro football Hall of Famer in football but I believe his only football cards are in modern 'nostalgia' sets like Swell Gum, etc. You could put him on the list with an asterisk I guess.

Dick Ricketts, and Mark Hendrickson (modern) had both baseball and basketball cards.

If there had been more than just 2 mainstream basketball sets issued between the 50s-60s, there likely would have been more players with cards in two sets. Steve Hamilton, Ron Reed, Cotton Nash and Chuck Connors each had a baseball card and played in the NBA. Connors, however appeared on a 60s Exhibit card as an actor and on his 52 Mother's Cookies card.

Chuck Conners got a couple of hundred big league ABs and also played for the Celtics. He had this Mother's Cookies card but as for hoops, it's a dry well other than a few homebrewed cards I found.

Ricky Williams and Chris Weinke, both Heisman winners, have multiple cards, but are semi modern though.

FWIW, Kyler Murray has a 2018 Leaf baseball card.

Charlie Ward has numerous FB cards depicting his time with FL State.

Any other Heisman winners who have cards in two sports?

Erick Strickland who played for the Dallas Mavericks has minor league card (s)

Russell Wilson has some 2010 Bowman Baseball Cards and we know him better as a Football player

John Elway has a pre-Football card from his minor league days.

Does a Jackie Robinson card exist where he's playing a sport other than baseball?

Pete Layden hit .250 in 41 games for the Browns in 1948, and played in the NFL 1948-50. After 1948 he played baseball with the Victoria Rosebuds, a semi-pro team in Texas which played in the Guadalupe Valley League. He has some baseball cards, but I'm not sure if he has any football cards.

There were a fair amount of NFL players who played semi-pro ball.

Dom Principe, NFL 1940-42 and 1946, played for the Bay Parkways in Brooklyn. Hall of Famer football player Ken Strong was a hard-hitting outfielder for the Springfield Greys. Probably some others who I'm forgetting.

Kenny Lofton has an actual basketball card. Its a tougher college card. If you count those 90s college cards like that Gibson above, Garvey also has a football pose in the set.

If you include wrestling as a sport, a few that haven't been named include Primo Carnera, Matthew Riddle, Rhonda Rousey.

Also, if you include the Foot Locker Slam Fest cards of the late 80's, early 90's, there's a bunch of non-basketball athletes, playing basketball in those sets.

Those would actually give BO, yet another sport represented on an officially licensed card.

HaHa, there might be a few like that, in those sets. As far as I can tell, the great volleyball player Karch Kiraly, had a basketball card, before he ever had a volleyball card.
