9-time Pro Bowl DB Charles Woodson elected to Pro Football Hall of Fame

Former Raiders and Green Bay Packers defensive back Charles Woodson was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday in his first year of eligibility.

The league's Defensive Player of the Year in 2009, Woodson was a nine-time Pro Bowl selection and finished his 18-year career tied for fifth in interceptions, with Ken Riley, with 65.

He led the league in interceptions with nine for the Packers in 2009, and earned a Super Bowl ring with Green Bay the following season.

The cornerback-turned-safety also forced 33 fumbles in his career, recorded 20 sacks and had three 90-tackle seasons, including 113 tackles with the Raiders at age 38.
