One of the greatest cornerbacks in both Jets and NFL history will soon take his rightful place in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. And it will be none other than his mother that gets to do the honors.
Revis recently shared that his mother, Diana Askew, will be Revis’ presenter at the Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Saturday, August 5, two days after the Jets play the Cleveland Browns in the Hall of Fame Game on Thursday, August 3.
Revis’ mother always played a huge part in his life and his NFL career, so it’s only fitting that she be the one to have the honor of bringing her son to football immortality.
Joining Revis in this year’s class are fellow Jets great Joe Klecko, defensive back Ronde Barber, coach Don Coryell, linebacker Chuck Howley, cornerback Ken Riley, offensive tackle Joe Thomas, linebacker Zach Thomas and edge-rusher Demarcus Ware.
