Eric Allen, 59, spent seven seasons in Philadelphia after being drafted in 1988 by the Eagles in the second round. He made an immediate impact, tallying five interceptions as a rookie and another eight in 1989, earning the first of his six Pro Bowl nods as well as an All-Pro selection.

Former Eagles cornerback Eric Allen is heading to the Pro Football Hall Of Fame as a member of the Class of 2025.

The four-person class is the first since 2005 with fewer than six inductees. Adam Vinatieri also missed out in his first chance.
