Former Packers named finalists for NFL Hall of Fame

Their connections to the franchise are loose at best, but three former Packers have a chance to be enshrined at Canton following an announcement by the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton Wednesday night.

 

Julius Peppers, Jahri Evans, and Steve McMichael were all named as finalists for the Hall of Fame, a class that includes 15 Modern-Era players, three Seniors, and one Coach/Contributor.

 

All three players are much more known for contributing to their other teams, playing less than five seasons combined for the Packers. McMichael made 28 tackles, including 2.5 sacks in his lone season with the Packers in 1994 after a long career with the Chicago Bears. Peppers is also more known for his career with the Bears and the Carolina Panthers, but he did register 104 tackles and 25 sacks across three seasons with the Green and Gold. Evans started 14 games in his final NFL season for the Packers in 2017 after a long career with the New Orleans Saints.

 

The inductees will be announced Super Bowl weekend on February 8th.
