Two Ravens legends, Terrell Suggs and Marshal Yanda, fell short of enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame on their first ballot.

Suggs and Yanda both reached the final round of 15 modern-era finalists in their first year of eligibility, but only four players gained admission as part of the Class of 2025, which was announced Thursday night at NFL Honors.

The four members of the Class of 2025 are defensive end Jared Allen, tight end Antonio Gates, cornerback Eric Allen, and wide receiver Sterling Sharpe. It’s the smallest class since 2005.

The fact that Suggs and Yanda made it this far in their first year, however, is a strong sign that they will eventually have a bust in Canton. Both players have a very strong case.

Suggs ranks eighth on the all-time sacks list with 139 over his 17 seasons (2003-2019). All seven players in front of him are Hall of Famers and so are seven players not too far behind him.

Suggs won two Super Bowls: one with the Ravens in 2012 and another with the Kansas City Chiefs as a late-season addition in 2019.

He was the NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 2011, when he had a career-high 14 sacks and seven forced fumbles. He was the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2003, when he exploded out of the gates with 12 sacks.
