The Hall of Fame, which first opened its doors on September 7, 1963, honors outstanding people in professional football, including players, coaches, team owners, and front-office executives, virtually all of whom made their main contributions to the game in the National Football League (NFL).
Due to the unique gold jackets that they get at the induction ceremony, members are known as “Gold Jackets.” Every year, between four and eight new members are inducted. To commemorate the NFL’s 100th anniversary, an additional 15 members, known as the “Centennial Slate,” were admitted into the Hall of Fame for the 2020 class.
