Edgerrin James Fails to Make Pro Football Hall of Fame’s 15 Finalists for 2017

Former Indianapolis Colts running back Edgerrin James did not make the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s latest cut of 15 finalists on Tuesday–having previously made the initial cut from 94 nominees to 26 semifinalists in mid-November.

Despite being one of 15 finalists for 2016, James was not among this year’s group in what was his third year of eligibility.

Instead, fellow running back greats LaDainian Tomlinson and Terrell Davis received the nod at James’ position among this year’s 15 finalists.
