The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers have competed in the National Football League (NFL) since 1921, two years after their original founding by Curly Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun.[1] They are members of the North Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) and play their home games at Lambeau Field in central Wisconsin.[2][3] Since their founding, over 1,800 players have played at least one game for the team.[4] Many, but not all of these players were selected by the Packers in the NFL draft, which began in 1936.[5] To honor their contributions to the team, the Packers have recognized their own players in various ways, including retiring uniform numbers,[6] establishing a team hall of fame,[7] and documenting the team's all-time statistical leaders.[8] Additionally, Packers' players have been recognized nationally for their performance, most notably through induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.[9] Packers players have also won numerous national awards, been named AP All-Pros,[10] been selected for the Pro Bowl,[10] and named to numerous "All-Time Teams".[11][12] The following lists provide an overview of notable groupings of Green Bay Packers players.
