Team / Players / Charles Woodson
 
CB CHARLES WOODSON #21
6' 1" 200 lbs. Michigan

Exp: 11th NFL Season, 3rd Packers Season
Age: 31
Acquired: Free Agent 2006 (Oak.)
Current Status: Active Roster
2007 Bio:
  • After signing with the Packers as an unrestricted free agent on May 1, 2006, turned in his best season statistically as a pro with career-highs in interceptions (8) and passes defensed (26)
  • Was coming off his eighth season in Oakland (1998-2005) when a broken leg forced him to miss 10 games, nearly as many as he missed in his first seven years total (12) after being drafted fourth overall by the Raiders in 1998
  • Was voted the 1997 Heisman Trophy, becoming the first predominantly defensive player to win the award given annually to the top collegiate player. He is the sixth Heisman Trophy winner to play for the Packers, joining a group that includes Paul Hornung, Ty Detmer and another one-time University of Michigan player, Desmond Howard
  • Was selected to the Pro Bowl each of his first four years in the NFL (1998-2001), and has earned All-Pro recognition on three occasions (1999-2001)
  • His big-game experience includes one Super Bowl (XXXVII vs. Tampa Bay), two AFC Championship Games, four other NFL playoff contests, three collegiate bowl games including the 1998 Rose Bowl (vs. Washington State) for the co-national championship and three matchups with collegiate arch rival Ohio State
  • Ironically, though he attended Michigan, is a native of the state of Ohio (Fremont)
Pro Summary
  • A premier man-to-man cover cornerback, proved he won't be making the transition to safety anytime soon -- despite many predictions from experts along those lines -- by turning in perhaps his finest season as a pro in his first with the Packers in 2006
  • Though he was not voted to the Pro Bowl, played like a cornerback who deserved his fifth such bid by setting career highs in interceptions (8, tying for first in NFC) and passes defensed (26) in his ninth season, his highest totals in those categories since his rookie year with Oakland in 1998
  • Signed with the Packers as their prized unrestricted free agent in 2006 after eight seasons in Oakland and eclipsed career milestones of 500 tackles and 100 passes broken up
  • Combines with veteran RCB Al Harris to give Green Bay a pair of elite cover men and is quick to credit Harris' shutdown abilities for the playmaking opportunities that are coming his way with the Packers
  • May not possess the same speed that was evident when he won the Heisman Trophy (1997) and was drafted fourth overall out of Michigan, but more than compensates for any perceived lost step with instinctiveness and awareness, which allow anticipation of the receiver's route and cat-quick breaks on the ball
  • A smart football player who combines that intelligence with a physical style and a love for the game that shows in his energetic play
  • With the Packers, resumed the role of punt returner not held regularly since Heisman days at Michigan and executed it fearlessly, fair-catching only two punts while returning 41, many in heavy traffic
  • Is a four-time Pro Bowl selection, having been voted to the game each of his first four years in the NFL, 1998-2001 (he did not play in '01)
  • Also has earned All-Pro honors on three occasions - in 1999 from the Associated Press, in 2000 from Sports Illustrated and in 2001 from The Sporting News and College & Pro Football Newsweekly
  • Was named NFL 'Defensive Rookie of the Year' by AP in 1998 as well
  • Signed with Green Bay on May 1, 2006, and became the sixth Heisman Trophy winner to play for the Packers, joining (chronologically) B Bruce Smith (1945-48), B Paul Hornung (1957-62, 1964-66), QB Ty Detmer (1992-95), WR Desmond Howard (1996, 1999) and QB Danny Wuerffel (2000)
  • Possesses a host of experience on "grand" stages, among them are three collegiate bowl games on a nationally-ranked Michigan team, including a 1998 Rose Bowl victory over Washington State to sew up the co-national championship; three Michigan-Ohio State games in the annual battle between two of the country's fiercest rivals; seven NFL playoff contests, including a pair of AFC Championship Games (2000, 2002) as well as Super Bowl XXXVII to conclude the 2002 season; and a number of appearances in prime-time contests during his nine-year career
  • Generally considered a durable player, showed incredible toughness and desire to play by battling through various injuries in 2006 to start all 16 games
  • Wore a harness for much of the season to protect an injured shoulder, but never missed a game and still made the type of game-changing plays that were commonplace earlier in his career, before a broken leg sidelined him for 10 games in 2005
  • Had missed just 12 NFL games prior to 2005 and has played in 13 or more regular-season games in seven of nine seasons as a pro, following a collegiate career that included 34 straight games at Michigan after becoming a starter in the second game of his true freshman season (1995)
  • Now has at least one interception in nine consecutive NFL seasons
  • Over his nine years in the NFL, has totaled 532 tackles (447 solo), including six-and-a-half sacks and 17 forced fumbles; 25 interceptions among 112 passes defensed, including three touchdowns; six fumble recoveries; a blocked field goal attempt; two receptions for 27 yards; and 53 punt returns for 440 yards (8.3 avg)
2006 SeasonBack To Top
  • Experienced what some might call a rebirth of his career, coming to Green Bay as an unrestricted free agent and producing statistically the best season of his nine years in the NFL
  • Despite battling a painful shoulder injury much of the season, started all 16 contests at left cornerback and led the team in both interceptions (eight) and passes defensed (26), each a career best and his most since he had five INTs and 22 passes defensed as a rookie in 1998 with Oakland
  • His 26 passes broken up were the third-most ever recorded by a Packers player, behind Harris (28 in 2004) and Doug Evans (27 in 1995)
  • The eight interceptions tied for first in the NFC and tied for third in the league, yet was snubbed in Pro Bowl voting
  • Also served as his team's primary punt returner for the first time since winning the Heisman Trophy at Michigan in 1997, and easily eclipsed the 12 NFL returns he had entering 2006

  • At Miami (Oct. 22), led the team with four passes defensed and recorded his 500th career tackle
  • Picked off a Joey Harrington pass that bounced off the hands of tight end Randy McMichael and ran it back 23 yards for a touchdown, his third-career score, but first since a 22-yard return of an Elvis Grbac INT, Nov. 28, 1999, vs. Kansas City (with Oakland); earlier in the game, came on a corner blitz and sacked Harrington, forcing a punt
  • Then, in the fourth quarter of Dolphins contest, forced running back Sammy Morris to fumble (out of bounds)
  • The following week vs. Arizona (Oct. 29), registered his second interception, picking off a fourth-quarter Matt Leinart pass thrown over the middle
  • At Seattle (Nov. 27), notched the second two-interception game of his career (also at Chicago, Oct. 5, 2003) and with three passes defensed eclipsed 100 career
  • On the Seahawks' first drive, intercepted a Matt Hasselbeck pass deflected by Ryan Pickett to set up the Packers' first touchdown
  • Notched his second Hasselbeck INT in the second quarter, stepping in front of a short pass intended for Deion Branch
  • Against the New York Jets (Dec. 3), intercepted a deep Chad Pennington pass intended for Justin McCareins
  • In 30-19 triumph at San Francisco (Dec. 10), had a career-long 40-yard punt return, setting up a fourth-quarter field goal that iced the contest; also had his first kickoff return since his days at Michigan, when he had all three in his collegiate days in one game, a home loss to Penn State (Nov. 16, 1996)
  • Broke up a third-down Alex Smith pass in the back of the end zone, forcing a 49ers field goal, pounced on a Frank Gore fumble (his sixth career fumble recovery but his first since Nov. 28, 2004, in an Oakland win at Denver), setting up a field goal, and defensed a long pass intended for Vernon Davis on third down, forcing a field goal attempt
  • Against Detroit (Dec. 17), recorded a career-high sixth interception, picking off a Jon Kitna pass intended for Mike Furrey; earlier, stopped RB Arlen Harris for a 1-yard gain on third-and-3, forcing the Lions to settle for a field goal
  • Made his seventh INT of the year vs. Minnesota (Dec. 21), picking off a Tarvaris Jackson throw intended for Travis Taylor, returning it 14 yards; had seven punt returns - tying for the second-most in franchise history - for 48 yards, including a game-high 18-yard return
  • Additionally in Vikings rematch, had a 34-yard punt return negated by an illegal-block-above-the-waist penalty
