My favorite Woody play was his division clinching 94 yard int. return at the Vet in '94. I was working for the CBS Fox camera man - 1 or 2 yards behind the endzone marker keeping the still photographers out of his camera line. It happened right in front of me - I think that I got in some trouble for standing up at that point, but the game was history.

What a great presence on defense. HOF candidate for how he improved everybody's game in the backfield.

As others have said, great choice and long over due. Guy was a great player and was/is a great person.

I remember that game. Well, only his game clinching INT. I was working at the North East Mall in the mid- cities of DFW. Happened to be on break at the time and saw it on a little colored TV in the break room. I believe that was the year the Eagles began wearing those uniforms that we see them with today. We had on our new Apex, white, star on the shoulders uni's.

I have a Woody. In the Ring of Honor. I always wanted a Woody in the Ring of Honor. Fork 'em, Devils.

I thought Woodson should be in before Haley went in. This makes me happy.

They still haven't replaced Darren Woodson - and he's been retired for 12 years.

Very underrated and under appreciated player. Would love to try and get to Dallas for the induction ceremony.
I am hoping that our #1 draft pick will replace him.

Most feel Jones would make a better safety than corner matched up against tight ends rather than WR's. The Cowboys plan on moving him around in spots.

Amazing to think that Witten and Woodson were teammates for one season.

Yeah, and Witten will also end up in the ROH but he won't have to wait near as long.

Woodson becomes the 21st player inducted, and the 19th player, and the first induction since the Cowboys added Drew Pearson, Larry Allen and Charles Haley at once in 2011.

Nice editing there, dallascowboys.com!
