LaMarr Woodley had an incredible playoff run in 2008 and with two sacks
in both the Divisional Round and Conference Championship, Woodley became
the first player in NFL history to record three consecutive multi-sack
playoff games, dating back to the Steelers' 31-29 loss to the
Jacksonville Jaguars in the Wild Card Round of the 2008 playoffs. In
Super Bowl XLIII, Woodley extended this streak to four games when he
sacked Kurt Warner twice, forcing the game-ending fumble on Arizona
Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner with 5 seconds remaining in the game
to secure the win. In 2009, LaMarr built upon his strong showing the
season before by recording 13.5 sacks, a career high. He was also named
to his first ever Pro Bowl.
The 3rd Annual LaMarr Woodley Football Camp is made possible by
Powerade, SmartWater, NIKE, EA Sports, the Springhill Suites, Hometown
Sports, Subway and FedEx.
