Though nothing is certain and safety comes first, David Baker and the Pro Football Hall of Fame remains optimistic about Troy Polamalu’s chances of being enshrined in-person this weekend.
On July 30th, Polamalu tweeted he tested positive for COVID, casting doubt on his ability to travel to Canton for his Hall of Fame induction.
Fam,
I recently tested positive for the Covid-19. Thank God I feel great and family are well. I’m working with the HOF to ensure we abide by all protocols to make it to Canton in time for all the festivities…— Troy Polamalu (@tpolamalu) July 30, 2021
Baker, President of the Hall, spoke on a recent podcast of how Canton and Polamalu are doing everything possible to ensure he can give his induction speech in-person.
