In 1978, the Packers defensive back led the NFC with 9 interceptions, including 4 in one September bout with San Diego that tied him for the still-standing NFL record for most interceptions in a game, first set by Sammy Baugh in 1943. Willie spent his last four pro years with the San Diego Chargers and tied the NFL all-time record for most recoveries in a game in ‘81. Sporting News has named the San Diego State All-American to its all-time collegiate team.
