Before he was terrorizing opposing quarterbacks on Sundays for the Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears, and Green Bay Packers, Julius Peppers was a 2-sport athlete at the University of North Carolina. In this image from 2001, Peppers drives against Duke’s Casey Sanders during the March 4 game at the Dean E. Smith Center.
Peppers learned during Super Bowl Week in Las Vegas that he was named to the Pro Football Hall of Fame following a 16-year NFL career during which he recorded 159.5 sacks. He’s the first-ever inductee to have played the majority of his career for the Carolina Panthers who selected him second overall in the 2002 NFL Draft.
