Over the past month, a 26-person panel has been compiling a roster of the 100 greatest players and 10 greatest coaches in history to celebrate the NFL’s 100th season.
Throughout the process, there’s been some notable players earn the honors of being named to the team. But there have also been some that have been snubbed, which has ignited fires in the realms of social media.
Players that were deserving include former Chargers’ LaDainian Tomlinson and Antonio Gates. And then there’s one that wore the blue and gold at one point that believes he was snubbed.
Former Chargers quarterback Ryan Leaf, the No. 2 overall selection of the 1998 NFL draft and also one of the league’s biggest draft busts, went to his personal Twitter account to jokingly say that’s he disappointed he wasn’t among the finalists on the All-Time Team.
Leaf said that he was going to launch a support group to help other snubs, which included Geoff Schwartz and Terrell Owens.
I was just informed that I was not selected to the @NFL All Time 100. I stand with my other snubs out there in our disappointment in this process. I’ve set up a support group to help…tag a couple fellow @nfllegends snubs and we’ll rise up together @geoffschwartz @terrellowens pic.twitter.com/SANSNxw9lS
