Julius Peppers, Dwight Freeney lead 2024 Hall of Fame class​


The 2024 Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinement class will honor defense as well as a player many consider the best kickoff/punt returner ever. The seven-member Class of 2024 will include defensive end Julius Peppers, defensive end Dwight Freeney and linebacker Patrick Willis. Devin Hester, the NFL record holder for kickoff and punt returns for touchdowns, and wide receiver Andre Johnson will also be enshrined as modern-era selections. Linebacker Randy Gradishar, who played in his last game in 1983, and defensive tackle Steve McMichael, who retired after the 1994 season, were senior finalists selected to be enshrined.

Peppers was a two-sport athlete at North Carolina, having played two seasons for the Tar Heels basketball team in addition to his All-American status with the football squad. He went on to become one of the NFL's most prolific pass-rushers and is fourth on the official sack list with 159.5 since sacks became an official statistic in 1982. The nine-time Pro Bowl selection finished with at least 10 sacks 10 times in 17 seasons and had at least 12 sacks three times. He also had 11 career interceptions, forced 52 fumbles and knocked down 82 passes.
