Wesley Woodyard was a standout linebacker at Kentucky from 2005-2007. In three seasons in Lexington, Woodyard tallied at least 100 tackles in each. The Georgia native holds the top spot with the most solo tackles in a career in the SEC since 2005.

Wesley Woodyard just finished up his ninth season in the NFL. In his nine seasons, Woodyard has spent the first six campaigns with the Denver Broncos before making the move to the Music City. Woodyard has tallied a grand total of 408 tackles in his career. Since making the move to the Tennessee Titans, the former Kentucky Wildcat has teamed up with another former Kentucky linebacker in Avery Williamson. The duo make up the linebacking core of the Titans defense.
