The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced its list of modern-era nominees for the upcoming Class of 2023 on Tuesday. A total of 129 players are in consideration for the highest individual honor in the sport, including several former members of the New England Patriots.
A total of 24 players who at one point signed a deal with the team have made the cut, a share of 18.6 percent of all nominees. While “only” 21 of them actually appeared in at least one game for the club, the number is still impressive and a nice stroll down memory lane.
