Buffalo Bills special teamer Steve Tasker was trimmed when the Pro Football Hall of Fame cut their list from 26 semifinalists to 15 finalists on Thursday. It was Tasker’s final year of eligibility as a modern era candidate and ninth time he made it to the semifinals. He will need to go through the senior committee process now.
Another primary special teamer, Devin Hester, did make the list of finalists. Hester was a returner who made splash plays all over the field and garnered more support as a result.
Tasker joined the Bills via a waiver claim on November 8, 1986.
