Cadillac Earns Spot In Hall Of Fame
TAMPA - Cadillac Williams' NFL career spans only three games, but already he's earned a spot in the Hall of Fame.
Williams, who became the first player in NFL history to start a career with three consecutive 100-yard rushing performances, now has an exhibit in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton.
The exhibit will feature the shoes and gloves worn by Williams when he set the new league mark.
''It's a tremendous honor to have my shoes and gloves in the Pro Football Hall of Fame,'' Williams said. ''We want to keep the momentum going against Detroit, and continue to have a successful year.''
Williams set the record by rushing for 158 yards in the Bucs' 17-16 win Sunday over the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. He gained 148 yards in the season-opening victory against the Vikings in Minnesota, and gained 128 yards at home against Buffalo in Week 2.
''It's always exciting for visitors to walk through the Hall and see the mementos from greats such as Red Grange or Jim Brown alongside those from the stars of today,'' said Joe Horrigan, the Hall of Fame’s vice president of communications/exhibits. ''We are so pleased that Cadillac and the Buccaneers have given us a piece of history to help us with our ongoing mission of preserving the complete story of the NFL and pro football.''
