The Rams will try to send a few more players to Canton in 2024 when the next class of Hall of Famers is inducted. On Tuesday, the Pro Football Hall of Fame announced 173 modern-era nominees for the Class of 2024 and among them were Steven Jackson, Torry Holt, Marc Bulger and London Fletcher.
It’s the fourth year in a row that both Jackson and Holt have been nominated for the Hall of Fame. Holt has been a finalist in each of the last four years, so he’s knocking on the door of Canton and will hopefully get in soon.
