DETROIT -- Barry Sanders was one of three Detroit Lions Hall of Famers to be given his Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence at halftime of the Lions' game against Chicago.
Sanders, Lem Barney and Joe Schmidt were all given the rings in a small on-field ceremony. Not surprisingly, there were large cheers for Sanders, who is still beloved in the city of Detroit.
The three are here as part of a homecoming week for Lions alumni.
