Ahead of the 2022 NFL season, Jacksonville Jaguars legend Tony Boselli will finally be enshrined in the Pro Football Hall-of-Fame after making it to the finalist stage six times. His induction will be significant to his former team’s history as he is the first Jaguars player to achieve such a feat.
Earlier this year, Boselli was informed that he’s headed to Canton — and the person who broke the news to him was his good friend and fellow Hall-of-Famer Anthony Muñoz. After keeping the distinction under wraps for a while, this weekend during the Super Bowl, NFL Network shared the moment that Boselli first learned he’d achieved football immortality.
“You know what, this is the sixth year [of being a finalist] and you get the phone call saying you’re not in and you’re like ‘OK, well maybe next year,’ and everyone else is crying and I’m going ‘Who is supposed to be sad here?,'” Boselli said to NFL Network.
