NFL Week 18 - Former Cleveland Browns left tackle Joe Thomas and former New York Jets/New England Patriots/Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Darrelle Revis (of "Revis Island" fame) headlined the 15 modern-era finalists for the 2023 Pro Football Hall of Fame class.
Lots of familiar names who have been finalists in the past rounded out the group. An enshrinement committee will meet and deliberate to whittle the finalists down to five 2023 Hall of Fame inductees sometime before the Super Bowl (dates and procedures have changed significantly -- and often suddenly -- since COVID). The five inductees will join senior-committee selections Chuck Howley, Joe Klecko and Ken Riley, as well as coach-contributor Don Coryell, as part of the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2023*.
