Both were excellent WRs but THolt career >> SSharpe career. The only reason I can think of is SS was eligible 15 years before Holt. If there is a football god, Holt will get in but will have to wait a bit bc it doesn’t look like they will let more than 1 WR in per year.

Wait, Joe Burrow was named comeback player of the year? Comeback from what?

I really, really hate that Torry Holt didn't make it in this time.
But, I can take off my Rams googles and see (saw) that Sterling Sharpe was a great WR and I believe a better football player than his brother. He probably would already have been in if not for something controversial that happened years ago of which I forget.
Love Holt. But unlike Holt, Sharpe was the main offensive weapon for the Packers and not one of many. And he did this playing at a time before rule changes the NFL implemented to make things easier on offenses.
Sorry Torry.
Congratulation Sterling.

I don’t recall anything controversial but maybe I forgot. Sterling Sharpe’s NFL career ended after just seven seasons because of a neck injury.

I'm aware of the injury, but he used to be on TV as a commentator then something happened and you never saw him on TV again.

According to ChatGPT Sterling Sharpe stepped away from TV for personal reasons. I thought he was pretty good on TV too.
———
Sterling Sharpe, a former NFL wide receiver for the Green Bay Packers, transitioned to television commentary after his playing career, notably working with ESPN and later the NFL Network. However, he eventually stepped away from broadcasting. In a 2018 interview, Sharpe mentioned that he no longer follows football and expressed contentment with his post-football life, focusing on personal interests like golf and spending time with friends. This shift in focus suggests that his departure from TV commentary was a personal choice to pursue other passions and enjoy a more private life.

Yeah. After a quick search all I could find was that ESPN denied a contract renewal and replaced him with Michael Irvin.

Should we start a separate thread for Verse DPOY? Thats an impressive honor considering there were some good candidates. Including our own Braden Fiske. Two of the top 3 for the honor belongs to our team. People questioning if giving up a future 2nd for Fiske was worth it. I'd say it was.
I remember the talk that you can't replace Aaron Donald. They'll have to do it by committee. The committee consists of Verse/Fiske/Turner/Young. I'd say they're gonna be wreaking havoc for years to come. Maybe that should be their nickname. The Committee.
