It’s okay, opposing linemen. Time can’t slow Packers’ Julius Peppers either.

Posted Nov 25, 2015
B.J. Raji, the Green Bay Packers’ nose tackle, is six years younger and 50 pounds heavier than 35-year-old pass-rusher Julius Peppers. But Peppers, at 6-feet-7 at 287 pounds, used to spend his winter months at North Carolina as a walk-on forward for the Tar Heels. That was years ago, but here he was anyway, charging through the lane and trying to dunk on Raji. (Washington Post)
