Nelson Toburen, a linebacker who won two NFL championships with the Green Bay Packers under coach Vince Lombardi, has died at 87 after a cancer illness.
Toburen was part of the Lombardi era, a standout chapter in Packers history. The team ruled the NFL during those years, and Toburen was a part of that winning period.
After his time on the field was over, Toburen went on to serve as a judge in Kansas, a role that shaped his post-football years.
