The Pro Football Hall of Fame welcomed eight new members on Saturday night in Canton, Ohio, with the inductees sharing emotional stories of the hard work, family support and unbreakable bonds with teammates who helped them reach football immortality.
Bailey, who shares the NFL record among defensive backs with 12 Pro Bowls, credited Bowlen’s presence upon his arrival in Denver — via trade from the Washington Redskins for running back Clinton Portis — for taking him to new heights. Bowlen, who bought the Broncos in 1984 and led them to seven Super Bowl appearances and three Lombardi Trophies, died in June from complications related to Alzheimer’s disease at age 75.
“I wasn’t sure how the fans were going to treat me,” Gonzalez recalled of his first game back in Kansas City with the Falcons. “So I was worried about it all week long. And then during pregame, they introduced ... me. Which I thought was very special. “The NFL changed my life and put me in a place I never thought I’d be,” Reed said. “There’s no place like Baltimore. No place like Baltimore.”“I always said I wanted to become a master of my game, like Bruce Lee,” Reed said. “I mastered my art of football, because that’s what it truly is when you understand it.”
