The finalists for the 2017 NFL Hall of Fame class have been announced with plenty of notable names on the list.

Of the 15 modern finalists, only five will be honored at the prestigious institution:

Running back LaDainian Tomlinson, safety Brian Dawkins and defensive end Jason Taylor are the first-time finalists, while quarterback Kurt Warner and receiver Terrell Owens are among those looking to get in after missing out in past years.

Former Commissioner Paul Tagliabue and Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones could also be elected in a separate contributor category, according to NFL.com.

The committee will vote on the finalists the day before the Super Bowl on Feb. 4 with the new class to be enshrined on Aug. 4.

Two members of the St. Louis Rams’ Greatest Show on Turf should get a lot of consideration with both Warner and receiver Isaac Bruce making the final 15.
