On Wednesday evening, along with 14 others, Patriots legend Rodney Harrison was named a Pro Football Hall of Fame finalist for their Class of 2024.
Harrison played in New England from 2003-2008, winning two Super Bowls with New England. He was named a First-team All-Pro safety in 2003 and a Second-team All-Pro in 2001. Through his 14-year NFL career, Harrison notched 1,206 tackles, 34 interceptions, 30.5 sacks, 15 forced fumbles, and four touchdowns. He was inducted into the Patriots Hall of Fame in 2019.
The other 14 finalists include:
- TE Antonio Gates
- DE Julius Peppers
- KR Devin Hester
- WR Torry Holt
- WR Andre Johnson
- DE Jared Allen
- LB Patrick Willis
- RB Fred Taylor
- DE Dwight Freeney
- Darren Woodson
- OL Jahri Evans
- CB Eric Allen
- OL Willie Anderson
Former Patriots DT Vince Wilfork was also a semifinalist alongside Harrison, but didn't make it to the final 15.
The next step in the process is the committee selecting their five inductees. That decision will be announced on February 8, 2024.
