CANTON, OH (SNN-TV) – Buccaneers legend Ronde Barber has started down the road to Canton once again.
Earlier today, Barber was named one of 28 semifinalists for the Hall of Fame’s Class of 2023, as has become customary. Barber was a semifinalist in his first year of eligibility for the Hall of Fame during its lead-up to the Class of 2018, and he has now repeated that status for six straight years.
The Hall will announce the finalists in January and if Barber is included he will have a chance to become the fifth player enshrined in Canton who played all or most of his career with the Buccaneers.
Other notable names listed are: Torry Holt, Hines Ward, Darren Woodson, Zach Thomas and Reggie Wayne.
