7 major snubs from the 2024 Pro Football Hall of Fame class, including Antonio Gates

The NFL unveiled its 2024 class of Pro Football Hall of Fame inductees, which included legends like Julius Peppers, Devin Hester and Dwight Freeney.

However, there were some great NFL veterans who didn’t make the cut this time, including iconic Los Angeles Chargers tight end Antonio Gates.

We’ve compiled seven of this year’s finalists who didn’t make this year’s class of inductees that we were pretty surprised by, ones we hope get serious consideration in the years ahead.

WIth 2025’s first-time eligible veterans looking quite impressive, these guys will definitely have competition in a year.

However, we still feel like they’re snubs in this year’s class.
