Richard Seymour enshrined into the Pro Football Hall of Fame

“I am overwhelmed today with humility,” Seymour said early in his induction speech Saturday. “Not because of what this moment says about me, but what this moment says about ‘we’ and what we can do together. I’m overwhelmed today with gratitude because I didn’t get here alone. None of us did.”
