Bob Forte




Like many players in his day, Forte was a multi-purpose threat for the Pack.

At various times, he played quarterback, running back and wide receiver on offense.

Defense was where he really excelled as a cornerback.

Blessed with excellent size for his era (6-feet, 199 pounds), Forte totaled 22 interceptions in his time with the team.

Forte led the Packers with eight interceptions in 1947.

Forte was a Packer from 1946-’50 and from ‘52-’53.

His career was interrupted by Korean War service in 1951.

Forte was elected to the Green Bay Packer Hall of Fame in 1973.
