Terrell Davis into Hall of Fame could be a boon for Patrick Willis’ case

Former San Francisco 49ers linebacker Patrick Willis recently chatted with San Jose Mercury News columnist Dan Brown, discussing what he has been up to recently. He acknowledged occasionally getting the urge to play, but it goes away after a split-second.

It’s a fun article updating things on Willis, but in light of some recent Hall of Fame news, it has gotten me thinking. Two weeks ago, the Pro Football Hall of Fame announced the 2017 class, and it includes running back Terrell Davis.

At the height of his career, Davis was one of the best running backs in the NFL.
