From Fran Tarkenton to Randy Moss, the Vikings are well represented in the Hall of Fame. By Tuesday, there’s a chance another great Minnesota player could be enshrined.
Voters will have a virtual session on that day in order to select the Class of 2021. Vikings defensive end Jared Allen is among the 15 finalists for this year’s class.
This is Allen’s first year of eligibility. QB Peyton Manning, DB Charles Woodson and WR Calvin Johnson are all finalists in their first year of eligibility as well.
Allen came over from the Chiefs and was a key part of some stellar Vikings defenses. He had 22 sacks in 2011 and had more than 14 sacks in three different seasons with the Vikings.
