Bobby Beathard Named To The Pro Football Hall Of Fame

The Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday announced the Class of 2018 for enshrinement later this year, and former Redskins general manager Bobby Beathard is joining some of the all-time greats.

Beathard was named a contributor finalist after spending the majority of his career in Washington (1978-88) as the Redskins’ general manager.

"Bobby's illustrious NFL career made him truly deserving of this honor, and the entire Washington Redskins family could not be prouder that the Pro Football Hall of Fame has secured the place in history he so rightly deserves," said Redskins owner Dan Snyder.
