On Aug. 2, Allen and three other former NFL players received their gold Hall of Fame jackets and made a speech.

The small crowd and charming speeches from Saturday's Pro Football Hall of Fame Enshrinement mingle with colorful memories from past enshrinements.

Out of more than 30,000 people to play in the NFL over 105 seasons, Allen is one of only 382 now in the Hall of Fame and one of only four in this year’s class, the smallest in 20 years. Allen enters the Hall along with cornerback Eric Allen, tight end Antonio Gates and wide receiver Sterling Sharpe.
