Legendary Bears return man Devin Hester is up for Hall of Fame induction again after being left out his first year on the ballot. Seven-time Pro Bowl linebacker Lance Briggs, however, didn’t make the cut.
Hester was one of 28 players to make the list of semifinalists for the upcoming class. Voters will cut the list to 15 finalists in January and elect the class for induction leading up to the Super Bowl.
Hester was an All-Pro for the Bears in 2006, ‘07 and ‘10 and is by far the NFL’s all-time leader with 20 total special teams touchdowns.
