Carmichael caught 589 passes for 8,978 yards and 79 total touchdowns in 13 years with the team Eagles. Considering the time period, he played in, Carmichael might put up Michael Thomas style numbers if he played today.
Carmichael will enter the Hall as a member of the NFL’s Centennial Slate of inductees, an expanded class of 20 new members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, celebrating the league’s 100th season celebration.
