After waiting 5,983 days since he officially retired, signing a one-day contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars on March 20, 2006, Tony Boselli, who played for Jacksonville from 1995-2001, was officially enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, an honor that only 362 players in NFL history share.
Now, after becoming the Jaguars’ first-ever draft selection, second-overall in 1995, Boselli will be immortal in Canton, Ohio. On Saturday, Boselli took to the stage at the Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium to deliver a speech, one that lasted a bit longer than the allotted eight-minute time limit that the enshrinees are given, approximately 11 minutes and 28 seconds.
