Steelers legends L.C. Greenwood and Andy Russell are among the most surprising names not in the NFL’s Hall of Fame. However, both defensive greats still have a shot at Canton.
The NFL announced 183 “senior” nominees for the upcoming 2025 Hall of Fame class back in September, including six former Steelers: defensive lineman L.C. Greenwood, kicker Norm Johnson, defensive lineman Eugene “Big Daddy” Lipscomb, linebacker Andy Russell, defensive back Mike Wagner, and running back Byron “Whizzer” White.
Now, that group has been narrowed down to 60 names, with Greenwood and Russell still remaining. Next, the list will be narrowed down even more over the next several weeks until three finalists are added to the ballot with a chance at making the 2025 Pro Football Hall of Fame class.
You can view the full list of eligible players here. Once announced, the 2025 Hall of Fame class will be enshrined in Canton in August.
