If Ray Lewis reaches the Hall of Fame on Saturday, he will do so on the fifth anniversary of his final game -- the Baltimore Ravens' Super Bowl triumph over the San Francisco 49ers.
Lewis believes there is another reason why it would be fateful if he was voted into the Hall that day.
"You cannot draw this stuff up," Lewis told the B-More Opinionated podcast. "My entire career I wore No. 52. I'm walking into Super Bowl 52. It's like this surreal moment."
Lewis is considered the biggest lock to make the Hall among the 15 finalists: wide receiver Randy Moss, guard guard Steve Hutchinson, linebacker Brian Urlacher, wide receiver Terrell Owens, offensive tackle Tony Boselli, wide receiver Isaac Bruce, safety Brian Dawkins, offensive guard Alan Faneca, offensive tackle Joe Jacoby, running back Edgerrin James, cornerback Ty Law, safety John Lynch, center Kevin Mawae and cornerback Everson Walls.
