Julius Peppers and Muhsin Muhammad may have to wait for their official Hall of Honor inductions, but they got some warm welcomes from some its current members on Monday.

On Monday morning, the Carolina Panthers announced that a pair of franchise legends—former defensive end Julius Peppers and former wide receiver Muhsin Muhammad—will be joining their Hall of Honor later this year.

And even though they’ll have to wait for their official inductions, they didn’t have to wait for their warm welcomes.

In a 57-second video subsequently released by the team, Pep and Moose were greeted into the club by a handful of its current members. The welcoming committee included Jake Delhomme, Steve Smith Sr., Wesley Walls and Jordan Gross—four of the hall’s six honorees

Take a look:

Five of these six men—Peppers, Muhammad, Delhomme, Smith Sr. and Gross—were a part of the 2003 Panthers squad, which went on to capture the first NFC championship crown in franchise history. While they came up just short to the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXVIII, they’d all make their mark in Carolina lure that season.

And soon, on Oct. 29, all of their marks will be made across Bank of America Stadium.
