Cincinnati Bengals icon Willie Anderson has moved a step closer to securing a place in the prestigious Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.
The announcement of semifinalists for the 2024 class, which includes Anderson, was made by the Hall of Fame on Tuesday.
Having been a finalist in the 2023 class but narrowly missing out, Anderson, a formidable offensive tackle, is optimistic about making the cut this year.
His remarkable 13-year career, with 12 years spent as a linchpin for the Bengals and a final year with the Baltimore Ravens in 2008, showcased his prowess.
