Junior Seau's Daughter Will Be Allowed to Speak at NFL Hall of Fame Induction

The Pro Football Hall of Fame has amended its rules to allow Junior Seau's daughter Sydney to speak about her father during next week's enshrinement ceremony.

Fox Sports' Alex Marvez first reported the news Saturday, clarifying the exact role Sydney Seau will have:

Sydney will be given the chance to participate in an on-stage interview conducted after the unveiling of Seau's bust. The Hall also has invited Sydney and Seau's three sons to unveil his bust on stage. Normally, the unveiling is only done by the presenter and enshrinee.

The Hall will continue to uphold its rule calling for only a video presentation of a posthumous inductee that includes the presenter's speech.
