Former Dallas Cowboys cornerback Deion Sanders is one of six former Cowboys nominated for induction into the National Football Foundation Hall Of Fame. Sanders is arguably one of the best cover corners in NFL History and may be considered one of the best athletes in sports history.

The FBS Hall of Fame Class will be announced live on May 27 from the NASDAQ Times Square site in New York City during a noon news conference that has previously aired on ESPNEWS. The class will be inducted at The National Football Foundation’s Annual Awards Dinner on Dec. 7, 2010.
