Darrell Green might have been the fastest player ever. A 7 time Pro Bowler, 4 time All Pro and 2 time Super Bowl champion conerback for the Washington Redskins, Green played from 1983 until 2002, an incredibly long career for a defensive back. Known for his 'make up' speed, he was almost impossible to beat deep. In his 20 NFL seasons, Green recorded 54 interceptions, which he returned for 621 yards and six touchdowns. He also added two additional touchdowns on interception returns in the postseason. Three times he recorded a career-best of five interceptions in a season (1984, 1986, and 1991). Green also returned 51 punts for 611 yards and recovered 10 fumbles, returning them for 131 yards and two touchdowns. Also known for staying healthy, he missed just 25 games throughout his career. Green was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2008.
