Chuck Bednarik
Iron Man Chuck held the line for the Eagles in 1949-62. He was an All-Pro 10-times, in the Pro Bowl 8-times, and was a 2-time NFL Champion with his fellow birds. Bednarik was one of the absolute best linebackers of all time, especially since he played football during a time that players were using goose down to stuff their pads at the beginning of the game. He was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in 1967, and he even has an award named after himself for the most outstanding defensive player in the college circuit.
Ray Lewis
Although there is some controversy regarding Lewis’ actions outside of the field, it is undeniable how insanely good he was in between the lines of the gridiron. Without Lewis, the Baltimore Ravens would have never touched their Super Bowl rings in 2000 and 2012. Lewis was awarded seven All-Pro nominations, 11 Pro Bowl invites and was given the Defensive Player of the Year award twice in his career. In 2018, Ray Lewis was inducted into the hall of fame, and his jersey number 52 was retired for the Ravens.
