Nelson Toburen, a linebacker who claimed two NFL titles with the Green Bay Packers under coach Vince Lombardi, has died at 87 after a fight against cancer.
Toburen was part of the Lombardi era, one of the most celebrated periods in Packers history. The team dominated professional football during those years, and Toburen was a part of that period of dominance.
After his playing career ended, Toburen went on to serve as a judge in Kansas, a role that shaped his post-football years.
