For the eighth time, former Pittsburgh Steelers WR Hines Ward was named a semifinalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Ward played with the team from 1998-2011 and has a solid resume for football’s ultimate honor. He made the Pro Bowl four times from 2001-2004, was a second team All-Pro three times from 2002-2004, and was named the Super Bowl MVP of Super Bowl XL after the Steelers’ win over the Seattle Seahawks. Ward has two Super Bowl rings, as he was also a part of the Steelers’ win over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII.
