Steelers legends L.C. Greenwood and Andy Russell are among the most surprising names not in the NFL’s Hall of Fame. However, both defensive greats still have a shot at Canton.
The NFL announced 183 “senior” nominees for the upcoming 2025 Hall of Fame class back in September, including six former Steelers: defensive lineman L.C. Greenwood, kicker Norm Johnson, defensive lineman Eugene “Big Daddy” Lipscomb, linebacker Andy Russell, defensive back Mike Wagner, and running back Byron “Whizzer” White.
Now, that group has been narrowed down to 60 names, with Greenwood and Russell still remaining.
