Pro Football Hall of Fame reveals nine semifinalists for contributor category in Class of 2025

The Pro Football Hall of Fame has announced nine semifinalists for the contributor category for the Class of 2025. The semifinalists include K.S. “Bud” Adams, Ralph Hay, Frank “Bucko” Kilroy, Robert Kraft, Art Modell, Art Rooney Jr., Seymour Siwoff, Doug Williams, and John Wooten. These semifinalists were chosen from a pool of 25 candidates by the contributor blue-ribbon committee. The committee will meet virtually on November 12 to discuss the semifinalists and select one finalist for the full selection committee. This year, the Hall of Fame separated contributors from coaches in the selection process. The final selection meeting will take place next year before Super Bowl LIX, where 20 finalists will be presented for voting.
