Who is eligible for the 2020 NFL HOF class?

The 2020 NFL Hall of Fame class will be announced on Saturday, February 1, 2020. The class will be inducted during the NFL Honors show the night before Super Bowl LIV. There are 20 finalists for the class, which includes 10 modern-day players, three coaches, and seven contributors.

The requirements for eligibility

To be eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, a player or coach must have been out of the game for at least five years. NFL Films senior producer Greg Cosell has said that to him, the most important requirement is that the player or coach was “the very best at his position for an extended period of time.”

Players and coaches become eligible for the Hall of Fame six years after they retire or are fired, whichever comes first. There is no set number of inductees each year; instead, the Senate vote on a case-by-case basis. For a player to be elected into the Hall of Fame, he must receive a minimum positive vote of 80%.

The list of eligible players

The list of eligible players for the 2020 NFL Hall of Fame class was released on Wednesday.

Among the first-time eligible players are Peyton Manning, Charles Woodson, Calvin Johnson and Jared Allen.

Manning, who retired after winning his second Super Bowl with the Denver Broncos in 2016, is a sure-fire Hall of Famer. He is the NFL’s all-time leader in passing yards (71,940) and touchdown passes (539).

Woodson, a defensive back who played for the Oakland Raiders and Green Bay Packers, was a Heisman Trophy winner at Michigan in 1997. He was an eight-time Pro Bowler and was named the NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 2009.

Johnson, a wide receiver who played for the Detroit Lions from 2007-2015, is widely considered one of the best players at his position in NFL history. He holds the league record for most receiving yards in a season (1,964) and is second in career receiving yards per game (88.1).

Allen, a defensive end who played for the Kansas City Chiefs, Minnesota Vikings and Chicago Bears from 2004-2015, is sixth on the NFL’s all-time sacks list (136).

Who will be inducted into the 2020 NFL HOF class?

The answer to this question will be announced on February 1st, 2020. This is the date when the official announcement will be made by the NFL. We will know who the finalists are for the 2020 NFL Hall of Fame class on January 15th, 2020. These are the players who will be up for a vote.

The selection process

The selection process for the 2020 Hall of Fame class will begin on Saturday, Feb. 1, the day after Super Bowl LIV. That’s when the 44-member Selection Committee will hold its annual meeting to discuss and debate the merits of the modern-era candidates for enshrinement in Canton.

The committee will whittle down the list of 102 nominees (29 offensive players, 22 defensive players, five special teams players and 10 coaches) to 25 semifinalists in November. The semifinalists will be announced at a press conference during halftime of ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” game between the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers on Nov. 11.

From there, the committee will narrow the field to 15 finalists, who will be announced in early January 2020. The committee will then meet on “Hall of Fame weekend” — Jan. 31 and Feb. 1 — to elect the 2020 class.

To be elected, a finalist must receive a minimum positive vote of 80 percent during the annual selection meeting.
