The omission of legendary Bengals cornerback Ken Riley not being in the Pro Football Hall of Fame is questionable. Riley finished his career with 65 interceptions which are fifth in NFL history. Riley was a first-team All-Pro in 1983 and a named second-team All-NFL for the 1970s by Pro Football Reference.

In seven career playoff games, Riley had three interceptions.
