On Wednesday, the Pro football Hall of Fame narrowed its list of nominees to 25 semi-finalists. Among them are a few Raiders legends.
The list includes Raiders greats CB Eric Allen and G Steve Wisniewski.
Allen finished his career in Oakland and played for the Raiders for four seasons from 1998 to 2001. This is his fifth selection as a semi-finalist.
Wisniewski played his entire career for the Raiders, starting in Los Angeles in 1989 and ending his career after the 2001 season. This is his second time as a semifinalist.
This circular saw from the list of nominees for the Raiders. He was in his first year of admission.
This list will be shortened to a shorter list of finalists later this year. They will be combined with the Senior Finalists to form a list of 20 Modern Era and Senior Finalists. The list of inductees will be announced before Super Bowl LIX in February.
