Former Packers make Pro Football Hall of Fame

They played a combined 64 games in the green and gold, but the Green Bay Packers can still lay claim to two of the seven newest inductees of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

 

Former Packers defensive linemen Steve McMichael and Julius Peppers will be enshrined in Canton later this year as a part of the seven-member class that also includes Devin Hester, Andre Johnson, Dwight Freeney, Randy Gradishar, and Patrick Willis. Both players are also much more associated with other teams, with McMichael, one of the menaces on the heralded 1985 Chicago Bears Super Bowl team, and Peppers, a member of the Carolina Panthers. 

 

In the twilight of their careers, Peppers registered more than 100 tackles in three seasons in Green Bay, collecting two interceptions and 25 sacks, while McMichael had 2,5 sacks among his 28 tackles. 

 

The pair will be inducted in Canton in August.
