Over the weekend, Charles Woodson was formally inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility, officially taking his place among the greatest to ever play the game.
It’s always special to see a Packer get inducted into the Hall of Fame, but there was something particularly enjoyable about seeing Woodson get the honor.
Woodson has a firm place in my Mount Rushmore of all-time favorite Packers, for a wide range of reasons; his versatility, his swagger, his off-field personality.
But perhaps most of all is the fact that Woodson came to Green Bay begrudgingly in 2006, with no real other offers on the table, only to end up loving the town and the team.
