Torry Holt will have a shot at becoming a Hall of Famer again this year. The former St. Louis Rams receiver has been named a finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame for the fifth year in a row, one of 15 modern-era players selected as a finalist for the Class of 2024.
In his career, Holt played 10 seasons with the Rams. He caught 869 passes for 12,660 yards and 74 touchdowns in St. Louis before finishing his career with one final season in Jacksonville in 2009. He made the Pro Bowl seven times and was a first-team All-Pro once in 2003, all as a member of the Rams.
He went eight straight years with at least 1,100 yards receiving, leading the NFL in receiving yards twice in his career: 2000 and 2003, going over 1,600 yards each time. In three seasons, he scored at least 10 touchdown, topping out with 12 in 2003 when he was an All-Pro.

Another former member of the Rams, London Fletcher, did not make the cut as a finalist. He was voted a semifinalist for the second year in a row, but he has yet to advance to the finalist stage despite being one of the most productive linebackers in NFL history.
