gold star for USAHOF

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 will expand to 400, and you can comment on and vote on:

The new 301 to 325:

301. Warrick Dunn
302. Levon Kirkland
303. Roddy White
304. Lou Rymkus
305. Kyle Williams
306. Willie Galimore
307. Keith Lincoln
308. Jerry Norton

Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football, basketball and hockey lists.

317. Jerry Norton

Jerry Norton began his professional football career in 1954 with the Philadelphia Eagles, starting as a Safety, then playing halfback before returning to safety.  Norton was also an excellent Punter, and in 1957 he would lead the league in Punts and Punting Yards.  He was traded to the Chicago Cardinals (which would become the St. Louis Cardinals) before 1959, where he played safety and Punter, and he continued a five-year streak of Pro Bowls that began in Philadelphia.  Norton again led the NFL in Punts and Punting Yards in 1960, the same season he led the league in Interceptions (10).  He would accumulate 35 picks in total.

Late in his career as a Green Bay Packer, he would act solely as a Punter.
