First Year Eligibles among Finalists Orlando Pace, Junior Seau, and Kurt Warner Years of Eligibility To be eligible for election, modern-era players and coaches must have last played or coached more than five seasons ago. Since contributors need not be retired to be eligible, there is no specific year of eligibility for Polian or Wolf. Year of Eligibility 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 9th 11th 16th 28th 32nd Finalists Orlando Pace, Junior Seau, Kurt Warner Tony Dungy, Marvin Harrison Morten Andersen, John Lynch Will Shields Jerome Bettis Tim Brown Terrell Davis Kevin Greene, Charles Haley Jimmy Johnson^ Don Coryell^ Mick Tingelhoff ^Although in 2007 the Hall of Fame By-Laws for selection were modified to provide that a coach must be retired five seasons to be eligible, both Coryell and Johnson first became eligible under the old rules that did not require the five-year waiting period. Thus, Coryell has been eligible since his retirement from coaching in 1986 making him eligible for 28 years. Johnson was eligible for one year between the Cowboys and the Dolphins plus ever since he retired after the 1999 season. Therefore, his total years of eligibility are 16.
