6. Antonio Freeman (1995-2001)
“HE DID WHAT?!?”
The improbable Monday Night Football touchdown catch in 2000 against the Minnesota Vikings might be what Freeman is most known for, but his career with the Packers should not be overlooked.
In seven seasons with Green Bay, Freeman led the team in receiving from 1996-99. He also led the NFL in receiving in 1998. In 1997, his 81-yard touchdown catch helped lead the Packers to victory in Super Bowl XXXI over the New England Patriots. Freeman also caught nine passes for 126 yards and two touchdowns in the 31-24 Super Bowl loss to the Denver Broncos the following year.
His career finished with a Pro Bowl big (1998), named to the All-Pro team (’98) and was inducted into the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame.
