As a halfback, kicker, and all-purpose weapon in Vince Lombardi’s legendary offense, Hornung played a pivotal role in the Packers' dynasty of the 1960s. A former Heisman Trophy winner, Hornung was the engine behind Green Bay’s offense in their early title runs, winning NFL MVP honors in 1961 and leading the league in scoring three times. Though injuries had limited him in previous seasons, the 1965 campaign saw him return to help lead the Packers to another NFL Championship, setting the stage for their back-to-back Super Bowl victories in the coming years.
