Kelce addressed his future during the Pro Bowl and Super Bowl media sessions, stating that he’d announce it in the coming weeks, and that time came on Monday, March 4, 2024.

Report: Jared Allen not elected to the 2024 Pro Football Hall of Fame class

Allen has been a finalist the last four seasons and has been snubbed each time.

The Minnesota Vikings will have to wait at least one more season to see another former player enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

According to Chris Tomasson of the Denver Gazette, Allen will not be part of the 2024 Hall of Fame class.

The Vikings acquired Allen from the Chiefs in the 2008 offseason by sending a first-round pick and two third-round picks. That move ended up being huge in helping Brad Childress turn around the Vikings and get them to the 2009 NFC Championship Game. During six seasons in Minnesota, Allen amassed 88.5 sacks, including a 2011 season where he had 22 sacks, just 0.5 from tying Michael Strahan’s record.

In his career, Allen played in 187 games, accumulated 136 sacks and forced 32 fumbles. He would have become the 16th member of the Vikings to earn enshrinement in the Hall of Fame and the 10th lineman to earn honors.

Allen will enter the 2025 voting as a four-time finalist.

Bucs’ Tom Moore given Hall of Fame Award of Excellence

Moore is returning to the Bucs in 2023 for his 45th season in the NFL.

One of the league’s oldest coaches has been recognized for his work.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive consultant Tom Moore, who has coached football since 1965, was given the Award of Excellence by the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Friday. Per the Hall of Fame, the Award of Excellence is given to those who “propelled the success of individual teams and the sport of professional football.”

Moore certainly qualifies. He’s 84 years old, and he got his first true coaching job as Dayton’s running backs coach in 1965. His first NFL job was in 1977, and he’s since worked for nine teams, Tampa Bay being the latest. Moore is a four-time Super Bowl champion and is most known with his 10-year stint as offensive coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts from 1998 to 2008.

Moore joined the Bucs in 2019, where he’s worked as an offensive consultant. He will remain with Tampa Bay for the upcoming 2023 season, which will be his 45th in the NFL.
