The Pro Football Hall of Fame this week released its list of 31 seniors and 50 modern-era players to advance in the voting process for the Hall of Fame's Class of 2025. Eight former Raiders – five in the Seniors category and three modern-era candidates – remain in contention.
To be considered for the Seniors category, a former player couldn't have appeared in a professional football game after the 1999 season. Modern-era candidates couldn't have appeared in a professional football game after the 2019 season.
The Pro Football Hall of Fame's Class of 2025 will be announced at "NFL Honors" in New Orleans, Louisiana, next February and enshrined next August in Canton, Ohio.
Here are the eight Raiders that remain eligible (in alphabetical order):
| Player (Alphabetical order) | Position | Category |
|---|---|---|
| Eric Allen | Cornerback | Modern-Era |
| Roger Craig | Running back | Senior |
| Lester Hayes | Cornerback | Senior |
| Albert Lewis | Cornerback | Senior |
