Football is back! And to start the 2021 season, the NFL is gifting fans with an annual tradition: the Hall of Fame Game. This year, the game will feature two historic teams: the Dallas Cowboys and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Alabama fans can turn on just about any game during the NFL season and find at least one Crimson Tide product out on the field, and that sentiment remains the same with the Hall of Fame Game.
In total there will be six players out on the field tonight, or at least on the roster. Four from Pittsburgh and two from Dallas.
Steelers features: Isaiah Buggs, DE; Minkah Fitspatrick, S; Najee Harris, RB; J.C. Hassenauer.
Dallas features: Trevon Diggs, CB; Amari Cooper, WR.
Both teams have former Alabama players that are young in the league and some that are veterans.
This happened the last time we played a Hall of Fame Game.
We’re back on the field in Canton tonight. 🙏
