Terrell Davis is now a Hall of Famer

Terrell Davis has become the fifth Denver Broncos player to be elected into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, sources with knowledge of the Hall of Fame class told 9News.
Davis was able to overcome a relatively brief career because he was truly great for a four-year period, a span that included arguably the finest postseason performance ever by an NFL running back.
Davis election was mildly surprising because the 48-member voting committee also elected former San Diego running back LaDainian Tomlinson in his first year of eligibility. Tomlinson’s election was expected.
That the Hall of Fame committee put in two running backs in the same class is unusual. It had not happened since Gale Sayers and Frank Gifford – who was a flanker and halfback – were elected in 1977.

It is great to see the committee finally embrace its own logical conclusion.
Or, in other words - using their own logic he should have been in the HoF well before now. Regardless, he is a worthy player, a better man, the best postseason back ever, a 2k rusher, and one hell of a guy overall.
