The Super Bowl is barely in the books and sports analysts are already speculating as to the future of Charles Woodson as a Green Bay Packer. Guess that is the ugly side of the business of pro football.
Woodson has had a remarkably injury free career as a cornerback and his broken collar bone will not cause him to lose a step but age will. Woodson who is currently 34 would turn 35 during the 2011 season. In cornerback years he is close to social security age.
What will Woodson decide what will the Packers decide? He still has good legs and his speed yet the front office does have to look to the future.
I hope that both parties can come to some form of an agreement that would keep Woodson at Green Bay. He has certainly established himself as a team leader. In my opinion the Pack would be smart to keep him as long as they can. Not only as a team leader but as a mentor. Who better than Woodson to train his eventual successor. Your comments are invited.
