Notinhalloffame List Update: 276-300 on Football Revised
The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other. The backbone of what we do is list-related, resulting in a long push to revise what we already have, specifically now with our Football and Basketball Lists.
At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the next twenty-five of the 2024 Football List, which you can comment on and vote on:
The new 276 to 300:
276. Keith Millard
277. Derrick Johnson
278. Stanley Morgan
279. Leon Gray
280. David Akers
281. Buster Ramsey
282. Beattie Feathers
283. Russ Francis
284. Carson Palmer
285. Keith Brooking
286. Dennis Smith
287. Frank Cope
288. Charles Mann
289. Ed “Too Tall” Jones
290. Rich Gannon

Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football and basketball lists.
291. Seth Joyner
You name it, Seth Joyner could do it at Linebacker.
It took a while before Joyner proved his professional worth, as the 1986 208th Overall Pick was cut in his first training camp before he was resigned. Joyner started seven games as a rookie, but was a starter afterward, where he showed an incredible body of work that allowed him to cover anyone on the field. He could attack the Quarterback, stuff the run, and block lanes with the best of them.
Joyner had his peak year in 1991, when he won his first Pro Bowl in a campaign in which he was fifth in MVP voting and second in Defensive Player of the Year Voting. It was a phenomenal campaign and one of the more incredible years that split what an interior Linebacker could do. After another good year, Joyner went to his second Pro Bowl; he signed with the Arizona Cardinals.
It was a good three-year run for Joyner, who added his third Pro Bowl in 1994, and played more action at Strong Safety, showcasing his exceptional talents. In his last two seasons, Joyner was a hired gun of sorts, providing veteran leadership, first on a Green Bay team that lost in Super Bowl XXXII to Denver, and then on that same Denver team that repeated in Super Bowl XXXIII. That was his swansong as a player, and that is the best way to go out.
He retired as one of the few players in the 20 Sacks/20 Interceptions club.
