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 contributed to that winning period.
After his time on the field was over, Toburen later worked as a judge in Kansas, a role that became a central part of his legacy.
