Thrilled to see SJax nominated, but would be surprised if he ever made it in. I’m not knocking him, he is my second fav Rams player, behind I Bruce. Still, think he has earned the opportunity to have his jersey retired. His 9 years career as a Ram are impressive, especially given how bad they were. The dude gave his all!

Isaac Bruce was finally voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame this year, even though he wasn’t afforded an induction ceremony in Canton due to the coronavirus pandemic. The Rams will try to send fellow receiver Torry Holt to Canton with him next year, as well as Steven Jackson.
Both Jackson and Holt are among the 130 nominees for the Class of 2021, with Jackson being one of 14 first-year candidates. The full list of eligible players was released by the Hall of Fame on Wednesday afternoon.
The list of 130 players will be whittled down to just 25 semifinalists in November before the 15 finalists are determined in January. Holt was a finalist last year but wasn’t voted in alongside his former teammate Bruce.
Jackson played nine years with the Rams in St. Louis, rushing for 10,138 yards and 56 touchdowns during his career with the franchise. In total, he played 12 seasons in the NFL and finished with 11,438 yards with 69 rushing touchdowns.
He rushed for at least 1,000 yards eight straight years from 2005-2012, with his best season coming in 2006 as he led the NFL in yards from scrimmage (2,334).
