The 2023 NFL Hall of Fame class was announced this week, and for the third consecutive year, after being named a finalist for the honor of being inducted into the Hall of Fame, legendary Viking pass rusher Jared Allen narrowly missed the cut.
Instead, it was Darrelle Revis, Joe Thomas, DeMarcus Ware, Zach Thomas, and Ronde Barber who were named the Hall of Fame class for this year, meaning Allen will have to wait at least until 2024 to get his bust put in Canton.
His career got off to a quiet, yet productive start.
