For the second time since he’s been eligible, Tennessee Titans great Eddie George is one of 25 modern-era semifinalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame class of 2024. George also made the cut as a semifinalist in 2022.
The next step will be to make the group of 15 finalists, and then a final vote by the Hall of Fame’s 50-person selection committee will take place prior to Super Bowl LVIII, with the results announced on the NFL Honors show in February.
After being drafted No. 14 overall by the Houston Oilers in 1996, George played eight seasons with the franchise and become its all-time leading rusher (10,009 rushing yards), a distinction he still holds today.
