Character: Resilience

Exhibits Published on : 1/6/2025

Helping to fulfill its mission to promote the values taught through playing the game of football, the Pro Football Hall of Fame opened an exhibit titled, simply, “Character.”It tough to find a better definition of RESILIENCE than playing two NFL games with a fractured tibia.

“Tape it up, Clarence” were the words JACK YOUNGBLOOD shouted on the sideline to the Rams’ team doctor.

Youngblood showed what it meant to be a great teammate and leader on his team. In his eyes, nothing was  more important than returning to the field to help the Rams win the game.
