Seattle Seahawks Ring of Honor member Kenny Easley got some long-overdue recognition today. Easley will be inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame as a part of the class of 2017.
This one should have been obvious. That begs the question: “Why did it take so damn long?”
Easley is the best strong safety to ever play the game, with all due respect to Ronnie Lott. Even Lott agreed, and actively campaigned for Easley to finally get this honor.
“I’m vicious. No doubt about it. I play the game in a vicious manner.” – Hall of Fame Safety @Easleyforce5 pic.
