Alright Packer Fans, help me out here. Didn't the Packers have a player who left the NFL to enlist? I don't remember his name, but I recall he led the team onto the field for the first game after 911. He sprinted out carrying a huge US flag.

Anyone?

You've got it a little backwards, Travis Williams was a wide receiver who graduated from the Naval Academy and played a little for the Packers after his military commitment was up.

The Cardinals Pat Tillman left the NFL to enlist in the Army.

The Cardinals did went Airborne Ranger and is/was assigned with the 175th Rangers. Think he's about due to either ETS or Re-Up.
