Biggest Hall of Fame snub for all 32 NFL teams
Tennessee Titans
Notable Hall of Fame Snub: RB Eddie George
A true throwback to the old-school era of running backs, George was a workhorse from the moment he was drafted by the Houston Oilers in 1996. The Titans handed George at least 312 carries in the first eight years of his career and he was extremely durable, rushing for over 1,000 yards seven times as George made four consecutive trips to the Pro Bowl between 1997 and 2000, including the 1999 season that saw Tennessee reach the Super Bowl.
Like Alexander after him, the heavy workload quickly took a toll on George, who declined rather quickly and was out of football after the 2004 season. Few running backs of his era were as dominant as George and it is fair to point out that a less heavy workload could have prolonged his career.
Washington Commanders
Notable Hall of Fame Snub: OT Joe Jacoby
A key member of the Hogs, Jacoby was a dominant force at offensive tackle for Washington throughout the 1980s. A four-time Pro Bowler and three-time first-team All-Pro, Jacoby helped the Redskins win three Super Bowls over the course of his 13-year career.
Jacoby was also recognized as a member of the NFL’s All-Decade Team for the 1980s, making his exclusion from the Hall of Fame particularly egregious. It is likely this wrong gets corrected in the coming years with the expansion of senior candidates allowed into the Hall of Fame each year, a move designed to help players like Jacoby who fell through the cracks in previous elections.
