Torry Holt is knocking on the door of Canton once again in 2024. Hopefully this is the year he hears a knock on his door welcoming him into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
On Tuesday, 25 semifinalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Class of 2024 were announced, with Holt and London Fletcher being among them. They’re the only two players with Rams ties who are semifinalists, which means Steven Jackson was snubbed for the fourth year in a row.
Holt is a semifinalist for the 10th time, and he’s also been a finalist in four consecutive years. It would be a surprise if that streak ends this year, but it’s a loaded class that includes Dwight Freeney, Antonio Gates, Julius Peppers and Tiki Barber.
Of all this year’s semifinalists, no player has made it to this stage more than Holt. Hines Ward and Darren Woodson are the next closest, with eight years as a semifinalist. This is Fletcher’s second time as a semifinalist, also making it to this point last year.

Holt was a member of the Rams for 10 seasons, catching 869 passes for 12,660 yards with 74 touchdowns. His 869 catches rank second in team history, as do his 12,660 receiving yards, both behind only Hall of Famer Isaac Bruce.
Holt was voted a Pro Bowler seven times and led the NFL in receiving twice (2000 and 2003), earning All-Pro honors once as a first-team selection.
Fletcher began his career with the Rams and spent four years in St. Louis, making 48 starts from 1998-2001. He had at least 100 tackles in two of those seasons and picked off six passes, all in 2000-2001. He would go on to play for Buffalo and Washington, making the Pro Bowl four times from 2009-2012 as a member of the Redskins. He led the NFL with 166 tackles in 2011 and picked off a career-high five passes in 2012.
Fletcher ranks second in NFL history with 2,039 tackles, fewer than only Ray Lewis, who had 2,059 during his Hall of Fame career.
