Mathieu has worn No. 32 for the Arizona Cardinals, Houston Texans and Chiefs since he entered the league as a third-round draft pick in 2013. He wore No. 14 and No. 7 during his collegiate career with the LSU Tigers.
It's difficult to pick a better player to honor as a modern-day defensive back than Woodson, though, considering the former Oakland Raiders and Packers great is a Hall of Famer who was a nine-time Pro Bowl selection and four-time All-Pro selection.
Mathieu already tied his one Super Bowl ring and is one of the best defensive backs in the league in today's game with three All-Pro selections in his first eight seasons.
He just might have a different look in 2021.
