The Jacksonville Jaguars won’t only be playing in the Hall of Fame Game Thursday, but they also will be watching one of their own get inducted into football’s most exclusive club. Of course, that player is former left tackle Tony Boselli.
Boselli, 50, will finally get his opportunity to join the Hall of Fame after seven consecutive years of being a semifinalist. His induction is a historic one as he’s the first player drafted by the Jags to earn a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Boselli was the first-ever draft pick by the Jags in 1995 as the team selected him second overall. He played for them from 1995 to 2001 and was able to earn First-Team All-Pro honors three times and earn Pro Bowl honors five times. Boselli was also named to the 1990s All-Decade Team and is a member of the Jags’ Hall of Fame called the “Pride of the Jags.”
