Former Packers Safety LeRoy Butler makes NFL Hall of Fame

Former Green Bay Packers Safety LeRoy Butler has finally made his way into the NFL Hall of Fame. Butler, who’s NFL career spanned from 1990-2001, spent all 12 of his professional seasons with the Packers. In Butler’s 16th year of Hall of Fame eligibility, he received the long awaited nod to forever be remembered in Canton, OH amongst football’s elite.

Butler grew up in Jacksonville, FL, in an upbringing of crime and poverty. In addition to that, Butler spent most of his childhood in a wheelchair and wearing leg braces, due to a birth deformity.
