NFL/Hall of Fame Game FAQ

The NFL has announced the match up for the first game of the 2015 NFL year. Of course, that game is a preseason game, but it is still a game, and it will be the first one played, getting us back into watching football. This year, the annual Hall of Fame Game will feature the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Minnesota Vikings.

The teams participating in the game will pick up a fifth preseason game, while the rest of the league will begin their respective exhibition slate of games a week later, typically playing two home games and two away games.

The 2015 Hall of Fame Game will be played on Sunday, August 9 in Canton, Ohio. Kickoff is set for 8pm ET, with television coverage on NBC.

On Saturday, August 8, the NFL will induct eight new members into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The Class of 2015 is Junior Seau, Jerome Bettis, Charles Haley, Tim Brown, Will Shields, Mick Tingelhoff, Ron Wolf and Bill Polian.

The teams will close out the enshrinement weekend a day after two of their former players will be inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Steelers running back Jerome Bettis and Vikings center Mick Tingelhoff are among the eight-man class recently elected to the Hall.

Bettis played 10 of his 13 seasons in the NFL with the Steelers. A six-time Pro Bowl pick, he had 13,662 yards rushing.

Tingelhoff joined the Vikings as an undrafted free agent in 1962 and established himself as a leader of Minnesota’s offensive line. Tingelhoff never missed a game during his 17-season career.

Other members of the Hall of Fame class are wide receiver/returner Tim Brown, defensive end/linebacker Charles Haley, contributor Bill Polian, linebacker Junior Seau, guard Will Shields and contributor Ron Wolf.
