JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Jaguars offensive tackle Tony Boselli is still waiting on his call from the Pro Football Hall of Fame. “I want to be in the Hall of Fame,” Boselli told Jaguars.com. While Boselli and Butler missed out in 2021, the area has enjoyed solid Pro Football Hall of Fame representation in recent years. Raines graduate Brian Dawkins was voted in to the Hall in 2018 and Charlton County product Champ Bailey was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2019.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Jaguars aren’t in the Super Bowl, but they’re sending four health care workers to the big game in Tampa next month. As part of the NFL’s tribute to health care workers, the league is giving 7,500 frontline medical personnel a seat in the stands. With the Tom Brady-led Buccaneers playing Super Bowl 55 in their hometown, ticket prices have soared this week.

Puskar, File)JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Usually, the Hall of Fame selectors meet in a conference room at the league hotel at the site of the Super Bowl on Saturday morning, the day before the game. There, they present the 15 finalists, discuss and vote, paring the list down to 10, and finally to the 5 modern-day players selected for enshrinement in the hall of Fame in Canton. Of course, there are a couple of Jacksonville connections among the final 15. The Hall of Fame tweeted out a piece of his presentation:The HOF Selection Committee is meeting virtually today to discuss the candidates for the #PFHOF21 Class. “All the guys on that list have great credentials,” Boselli said after being named as one of the final 15 yet again.

For the fifth time, the former Jaguars all-pro tackle is among the final 15 for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. And to be one of the top 15 guys to be considered for the Hall of Fame again … obviously, all of us want to be one of the final five that ended up going to Canton. He is one of the great guards, played for the Steelers, all kinds of success, won championships,” Boselli said. It would be an honor anytime for Boselli to be selected, but this year might feel extra special. I’m excited for 2021 and I can’t think of a better way for the Boselli family to kick off 2021 than to be invited to be part of the Hall of Fame.”

A Sports Illustrated compilation of numbers reported by schools and local media found at least 800 college football players have tested positive for the virus. News4Jax can find no similar national numbers for high school players. But this week a coach at Greenville High School in Tennessee said six of his players had tested positive, a high school in Corpus Christi, Texas, suspended practice after football player tested positive, and two dozen players and five coaches at Tavares High School in Central Florida are quarantined after two players tested positive. The 27-year-old was reported to have tested positive for coronavirus but had recovered. Kantor added that because athletes may be unaware that they have the virus, they could unknowingly expose someone else.

Among those fans: New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara, who was wearing a T-shirt and cap with Wallaces name on them.

Not only did he laud Wallaces courage for speaking out, he also had high praise for the white drivers standing with Wallace. Let me say the right thing now, Kamara said.
