Joining Davis in the 2017 class is quarterback Kurt Warner, running back LaDainian Tomlinson, defensive end Jason Taylor, kicker Morten Anderson, safety Kenny Easley, and owner Jerry Jones.
Davis will become the third Bulldog to be enshrined in Canton, Ohio, joining Fran Tarkenton and Charley Trippi.
Davis doesn’t have the longevity on his resume that some hall of famers have, but his great years were among some of the greatest ever.
Davis played just seven seasons in the NFL, with the final three being plagued by injuries. His 7,607 rushing yards rank 55th all-time and his 60 rushing touchdowns are tied for 48th all-time.
