Yesterday, the NFL announced its nominees for the 2019 NFL Hall of Fame class. Among the 13 players to survive the latest round of cuts are two former members of the New England Patriots: cornerback Ty Law and defensive tackle Richard Seymour. While this marks the first time that Seymour has reached the finals, Law is no stranger to this process after making it this far in both 2017 and 2018.
Both players are up against terrific competition, but Law in particular appears to have a tough road ahead of him: he is one of five defensive backs to reach the finals, alongside Steve Atwater, Champ Bailey, John Lynch, and Ed Reed.
