Cincinnati Bengals legend Ken Riley is now one step away from getting into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
On Wednesday, the Pro Football Hall of Fame announced that Riley is one of three senior finalists for the 2023 class.
The Hall of Fame’s full Selection Committee will consider Riley for election — along with 15 modern-era players and a coach/contributor — when it meets to choose the entire Class of 2023 in January. Riley will be elected to the Hall if he receives at least 80% approval in the up-or-down balloting (go here for more details).
