One set the standard for cornerback play in the Packers franchise with a pathway to Canton guaranteed. The other left “dreadlocks in his wake” and lifted the Packers to playoff victories.
The Green Bay Packers are inducting future Pro Football Hall of Famer Charles Woodson, and Al Harris – his 2000’s bookend at cornerback, into the team’s Hall off Fame.
The induction, the 50th such ceremony in Packers history, is set for April 18 at the Lambeau Field Atrium.
Woodson spent seven of his 18 NFL years in Green Bay. They were arguably his best years. His resume from that time speaks for itself:
– 2009 NFL Defensive Player of the Year
– Led NFL
– 2009: Interceptions (9), interception return touchdowns (3)
– 2011: Interceptions (7)
– Pro Football Hall of Fame All-2000’s Team
– Two first-team All-Pro (2009,2011)
– Four Pro Bowls (1963-67)
– Packers top 5 rankings
– 1st for most seasons leading NFL in interceptions (2, 2009 and 2011)
– 1st for most career defensive touchdowns (10)
– 1st (tie) for most defensive touchdowns in one season (3, 2009)
– 2nd (tie) for most interceptions in one season (9, 2009)
– 4th (tie) for most career interceptions (38)
– 5th (tie) for most seasons leading team in interceptions (4, 2006, 2008-09, 2011)
Harris may never reach Canton, Ohio, but his resume is also strong with two Pro Bowls and one interception that will forever live in Packers lore, the pick-6 of Matt Hasselbeck in overtime that gave the Packers a Wild Card playoff win in 2003.
