NFL: Charles Woodson is one of the best Green Bay Packers free-agent acquisitions in franchise history. Only Reggie White is consistently ranked higher in that regard. Woodson spent seven seasons in Green Bay (2006-2012) and was consistently one of the best (if not the best) players on the field during his time there. He quickly became a fan favorite and will forever have a special place in the hearts of Packers fans. That continued this off-season when some pretty cool news broke regarding the former Packer.
Charles Woodson Inks Historic Deal With His Official Whiskey Brand
It was announced this week that the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders and Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee Charles Woodson would join in a partnership. That partnership? The former star cornerback/safety’s bourbon brand, Woodson Bourbon Whiskey, and the team and its arena, Allegiant Stadium.
Under the terms of the agreement, Woodson Bourbon Whiskey becomes the official bourbon of the Raiders. The partnership is historic in that it marks the first time that a professional football player’s company has been the official spirit sponsor of an NFL team.
“I used to jokingly say that Woodson Bourbon Whiskey was the official bourbon of Raider Nation but now I can say it with my chest,” Woodson said in a news release. “Woodson Bourbon Whiskey is the official bourbon of the Las Vegas Raiders and Allegiant Stadium. I want to thank Mark Davis, Sandra Douglass Morgan, the Raiders partnership team and the entire Raiders organization for giving Woodson Bourbon Whiskey the opportunity to be great! Go Raiders!”
Green Bay Packers And NFL Fans React On Social Media
When fans saw that Charles Woodson made history on this partnership, they flocked to social media to show their support:
