The NFL announced the 2022 Pro Football Hall of Fame class during its “NFL Honors” show on Thursday evening and former Denver Broncos outside linebacker DeMarcus Ware did not make the cut. This was Ware’s first year of eligibility.
Ware spent the first nine years of his career with the Dallas Cowboys, totaling a franchise-high 117 sacks before later finishing his career with the Broncos, recording 21.5 sacks in 37 games in Denver.
Ware reached Super Bowl 50 with the Broncos following the 2015 season and he was responsible for spying Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton. Ware totaled five tackles (including two tackles for losses), four QB hits and two sacks in Denver’s 24-10 upset win over Carolina.
