7 former Browns players nominated for Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2026

The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced 128 modern-era players nominated for the Class of 2026, including seven former Cleveland Browns.

In the next step in the selection process, a Screening Committee will reduce the list to 50 players. The results of that reduction will be announced in mid-October.

The full 50-person Hall of Fame Selection Committee then will reduce the list further – to 25 semifinalists, later in the fall of 2025. Another vote will create the list of 15 modern-era player finalists who will be discussed at the annual selection meeting ahead of Super Bowl LX. The Class of 2026 can consist of three, four or five modern-era players under the Hall of Fame's bylaws.

Here are the nominees who spent one or more seasons with the Browns:
