Even before this week, Richard Seymour was able to call himself a lot of things. Super Bowl champion. All-Decade defensive tackle. Professional poker player. Dad. Now, however, he can add another prestigious title to his business cards: Pro Football Hall of Famer.
The 42-year-old was voted into the Hall of Fame this week, with the announcement officially coming during the NFL Honors ceremony on Thursday night. After three straight years of failing to advance past the final round, the long-time New England Patriots defender has therefore finally made the cut.
On Friday morning he took to social media to share his thoughts on becoming a Hall of Famer.
