Willie Brown
Oakland Raiders cornerback for 12 of his 16 playing
years, 1967-1978. He started for Raiders in Super Bowl II and
Super Bowl XI. A 75 yard interception return for a TD in Super
Bowl XI was the highlight but he still holds the pro record of
at least one interception per season for all of his 16 years.
He was named to four Pro Bowls and five AFL-All Star games. His
39 interceptions as a Raider is still a team record. One of the
finest and most feared cornerbacks, he is in the Pro Football
Hall of Fame. Enshrined into the Bay Area Sports Hall of Fame
in 2001.
