Nelson Toburen, a linebacker who claimed two NFL titles with the Green Bay Packers under coach Vince Lombardi, has died at 87 after a cancer illness.
Toburen played during the Lombardi era, one of the most celebrated periods in Packers history. The team ruled the NFL during those years, and Toburen was a part of that run of success.
After his time on the field was over, Toburen went on to serve as a judge in Kansas, a role that defined much of his later life.
