Former Cincinnati Bengals quarterbacks Ken Anderson and Boomer Esiason are among the nearly 200 players nominated for the Pro Football Hall of Fames Class of 2025 in the Seniors category, the Hall of Fame announced on Tuesday.The roster of 183 nominees consists of 100 offensive players, 77 defensive players and six special teamers. The Seniors Screening Committee, a new entity created this year to add additional input around the overall selection process, will reduce the list to 50 players (plus ties, if any, for the 50th spot) over the next several weeks.The Seniors category includes former players who last could have appeared in a professional football game in the 1999 season.Former Bengals wide receiver Isaac Curtis and former Cincinnati defensive back Lemar Parrish are among the nominees with Bengals connections, too.The Pro Football Hall of Fames Class of 2025 will be enshrined next August.Once the Seniors Screening Committee has completed its work, the separate Seniors Blue-Ribbon Committee will make additional reductions in several increments. In late fall, the Seniors Blue-Ribbon Committee will select three Seniors as Finalists for possible election with the Class of 2025 presented by Visual Edge IT.SENIOR PLAYER NOMINEESFOR THE PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME CLASS OF 2025(Players must have last played at least 25 full seasons ago to be eligible for nomination in this category.
