It isn t often that the Hall of Fame has enshrined two wide receivers in the same era off the same team.
Reggie Wayne is a strong Hall-of-Fame candidate with his 1,070 career catches. Torry Holt is an even stronger one, having been selected to the 2000’s NFL all-decade team.
But a larger debate looms: Are two wide receivers off the same team that managed to win a single championship worthy of Canton?
That’s the plight of both Wayne and Holt, who were passed over as finalists for the Hall’s Class of 2021 and figure to be finalists again in 2022.

Most Cardinals fans are unlikely aware of the long-ago career of Duke Slater, but they should be.
Slater was a dominant tackle during the beginning years of the NFL. He was the longest-tenured African-American player of the era prior to the NFL locking out black players in the 1930s until the late 1940s.
Slater played from 1922-1931 for the Milwaukee Badgers (1922), Rock Island Independents (1922-1925) and the Chicago Cardinals (1926-31). He was named All-NFL four times including twice with the Cardinals in 1926 and 1929.
He blocked for Hall of Famers Fritz Pollard, Jimmy Conzelman, Jim Thorpe and Ernie Nevers, who was with the Cardinals from 1929-1931. Slater played all 60 minutes in the 1929 Thanksgiving Day game against the Chicago Bears in which Nevers scored a still league-record 40 points on six touchdowns and four extra points.
