Prior to Sunday’s matchup with the Baltimore Ravens, the New England Patriots held a special induction ceremony on Saturday for former nose tackle Vince Wilfork as he became the 32nd member of the team Hall of Fame.
Sporting the trademark red jacket, Wilfork was introduced by Patriots Chairman and CEO Robert Kraft.
As for “Big Vince’s” speech? He completely “winged” the whole thing and spoke straight from the heart with no pre-written words.
“As a player, I never really thought about being a Hall of Famer. My goal was always playing football, a game I love, but to understand who I am, you have to understand my journey,” Wilfork said.
