Darren Woodson was left out of the Pro Football Hall of Fame for another year.
Another year has come and gone and the disappointment remains the same. Darren Woodson was once again left out of a Pro Football Hall of Fame class.
Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2025:
Jared Allen
Sterling Sharpe
Eric Allen
Antonio Gates— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) February 7, 2025
Overall a four-man class is an interesting move for the HOF. Jared Allen and Antonio Gates have always felt like locks, but it is a bit surprising that Sterling Sharpe made his way in.
It should be clear to all that Woodson was an integral part of how the Cowboys played defense throughout their 1990s dynasty. His positional versatility and talent to play everywhere in the secondary was a key reason why the Cowboys were able to have the success that he did.
It has never made sense as to why Woodson has been excluded from Canton. Perhaps the voters still hold back his lack of specific numbers or statistics at one position or the other. This is holding an immense talent that Woodson had against him which is illogical.
Unfortunately Darren Woodson’s wait continues.
