Isaac Bruce finally got the good news he’s been waiting to hear for six years on Saturday night as he was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. This comes in his sixth year of eligibility and his fourth year as a finalist.
The former Rams receiver caught the game-winning touchdown pass in Super Bowl XXXIV to beat the Titans 23-16. He’s the franchise’s all-time leader in yards (14,109) and receptions (942), as well as touchdown catches (84).
It was surprising that he had to wait as long as he did to get to Canton, but it’s well-deserved that he’s finally made it.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to the news, celebrating his remarkable accomplishment.
Congrats to @IsaacBruce80. Well deserved! #HOF2020

Finally, former #Rams great WR Isaac Bruce got the knock. He’s a Hall of Famer, per source, and it happened right here near his hometown of Ft. Lauderdale. They don’t make them more deserving than @IsaacBruce80.

Congrats to Isaac Bruce, an 8-time 1,000-yard receiver and a Super Bowl champion in St. Louis. He also was drafted in 1994, with the Rams still in LA., and played 12 games that season. https://t.co/Ta3tgLpooI
