It was a long time coming if you ask anyone who really watched the late 90s and early 2000s Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Tony Dungy, Derrick Brooks, and Warren Sapp were already in. Now it was time for John Lynch to get his spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Not even COVID-19 could delay it another year.
With the aid of his son Jake, the legendary quarterback turned safety unveiled the bust which will live in Canton, Ohio for generations to come. And with the six minutes he had at the podium, Lynch took the time to thank all of the people who helped him get to where he is today, dating all the way back to the seventh grade for starters.
