Joe Greene was a first-ballot, no-doubt Hall of Famer. Now, he’s trying to convince the league to induct one of his teammates. That teammate is Andy Russell, a player who, in Greene’s mind, has been snubbed by Canton. He joined the Talk of Fame Sports Network to state his case for Russell to be enshrined as part of the senior committee.
“We talk about him as being the third guy (as a linebacker), but he’s really the first,” Greene said, referencing two other Hall of Famers next to Russell, Jack Ham and Jack Lambert.
