Former Dallas Cowboys and Miami Dolphins coach Jimmy Johnson was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2020 on Sunday evening.
Johnson learned of the news live on-air during halftime of Sunday's matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and Green Bay Packers. Pro Football Hall of Fame president David Baker surprised Johnson on-set with the honor.
As he was presented with the news, Johnson become emotional and was congratulated by his NFL on FOX colleagues. He then was choked up as he expressed his gratitude.
"The only thing I can think of is all the assistant coaches that worked for me, all the great players that have played for me—they are the reason that I'm here," Johnson said.
