GREEN BAY — The Green Bay Packers will be honoring Willie Davis during the 2020 season by wearing a No. 87 sticker on the backs of their helmets

The news comes several months after Davis died in Santa Monica. Davis was a Pro Football Hall of Fame defensive end who played 10 seasons with the Packers.

In addition to a hall of fame career, Davis also served on the Packers board of directors.

According to the Packers, "he also was the only member of the Packers organization to have earned all four Packers Super Bowl rings, receiving the first two as a player and the subsequent rings as a member of the Packers Board of Directors."

The stickers on the helmet feature his number, 87, and his last name.
