Here’s some good news for Jahri Evans. The New Orleans Saints legend and Super Bowl XLIV champion has been named a finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Class of 2025, the HOF announced Saturday.

This is the second time he’s made it to the finalist stage. Evans was a semifinalist in his first year of eligibility, and he’s now twice advanced further. Evans currently works for the Saints as an assistant offensive line coach after ending his illustrious career as a player back in 2017. He won five All-Pro nods from 2009 to 2013 and was a six-time Pro Bowler from 2009 to 2014.

Not bad for a former fourth-round draft pick out of Bloomsburg, a Division II school in Pennsylvania.

Evans was also admitted to the Saints’ prestigious Ring of Honor this season, which could help give him a boost in the eyes of voters when they gather for the final round. When he learned he was being recognized with that honor, Evans delivered an emotional two-minute speech to the team at training camp. Here’s hoping he can share a longer reflection at Canton next summer.
