Back in the summer, long before the 2019 season began, the Pro Football Hall of Fame prepared for a proper way to celebrate the NFL’s 100th season.
This has been the first triple-digit season that the National Football League has played and as a result we have all seen tons of branding for that at every turn. To cap it all off it had previously been discussed that the NFL could expand the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class to a larger group.
There are rules and limitations as far as how many people can be selected to the Hall every year, the announcement always comes the night before the Super Bowl, but with it being the 100th season there was talk of a “Centennial Class” that would be a one-time only sort of thing that could serve as an opportunity to get in players that have had trouble breaking through.
