City Of Fort Wayne To Honor NFL Hall Of Famer Rod Woodson

Signs declaring Fort Wayne as the hometown of Football Hall of Famer Rod Woodson will soon be up at entrances to the city.

Mayor Tom Henry unveiled the sign during a ceremony honoring Woodson at Parkview Field on Monday, less than a month before his Aug. 8 Hall of Fame induction.

The program included Woodson’s high school and college coaches — former Fort Wayne Snider coach Mike Hawley and former Purdue coach Leon Burtnett. But the 44-year-old Woodson said he was glad his wife wasn’t there for the sign unveiling, because they would have both started crying.

Woodson was a six-time All-Pro and 11-time Pro Bowler during his 17-year NFL career, including 10 seasons with Pittsburgh. The defensive back played in three Super Bowls, winning one with the Baltimore Ravens.
