15 players for the Minnesota Vikings are enshrined in Canton, Ohio, as members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Adrian Peterson will be the 16th if he ever retires, which could take a while. Most of the Vikings Hall of Fame inductees are from the era that the team frequented the Super Bowl and rightfully so.
Vikings safety Harrison Smith was an All-Pro selection in 2017 and has been elected to five Pro Bowls. His supremacy at the safety position is as obvious to Minnesotans as snow falling in January. Smith is respected nationally, but it is difficult to adjudicate whether the praise is lavish enough.
