Raiders safety Charles Woodson’s illustrious career will end on Sunday against Kansas City at Arrowhead Stadium, the place where it began 18 seasons ago.
So many moments happened in between, from earning the NFL’s defensive rookie of the year award to the Raiders run to the Super Bowl to his defensive player of the year award to a championship won with the Green Bay Packs to the nine Pro Bowls earned along the way. Woodson should get into the Hall of Fame on the first ballot, and widely considered among the greatest defensive backs of all time.
Way back before Woodson was referred to with a goat emoji, he walked with an air of invincibility created by a Heisman Trophy and Michigan’s national title run.
