Classic Sports Card of The Day

18 Jan

1964 Philadelphia football card of former Green Bay Packer defensive end Willie Davis. With the conference championship games coming up this weekend, this is a great card to feature, since Davis played in 6 NFL championship games in his Packer career, with the Pack winning 5 of them. Davis played 12 seasons in the NFL, starting in 1956 with the Cleveland Browns. He was traded to Green Bay in 1960, becoming a stalwart on the Packer defense that won those 5 titles, which also included the first two Super Bowls. Davis never missed a game in those 12 seasons, and was a five time Pro Bowler. He was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1981.
