The selection committee for the 2022 Pro Football Hall of Fame class met virtually on Wednesday via Zoom, according to Peter King of NBC Sports.
DeMarcus Ware, who won Super Bowl 50 with the Broncos following the 2015 season, is among the finalists for this year’s Hall of Fame class.
After recording 36 QB hits and 17.5 sacks in his first two seasons in Denver, Ware totaled 12 quarterback hits, 3.5 sacks and recovered a fumble during the Broncos’ three-game playoff run in 2015 that was capped by a Super Bowl title.
Wednesday’s meeting lasted nearly seven and a half hours, and the votes for this year’s class have been cast, but the results won’t be announced until the night of “NFL Honors” on Thursday, Feb. 10.
The awards show, hosted by Keegan-Michael Key, will “recognizes the NFL‘s best players, performances and plays from the 2021 season,” according to a press release from the NFL.
