GREEN BAY – Former Packers receiver Donald Driver and safety Nick Collins are among the 167 modern-era nominees for the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2025.

Driver, a four-time Pro Bowl selection, is Green Bay's career leader in receiving yards with 10,137. Collins made three All-Pro teams before sustaining a career-ending neck injury two games into his seventh NFL season.

Other Packers nominees include receivers Jordy Nelson and Antonio Freeman, running back Dorsey Levens, fullback John Kuhn, and offensive linemen Josh Sitton and T.J. Lang.

Other nominees who spent a portion of their NFL careers with the Packers include receiver Andre Rison, safety Eugene Robinson, fullback Vonta Leach, offensive linemen Jahri Evans and Jeff Saturday, returners Eric Metcalf and Allen Rossum, and punter Sean Landeta.

The roster of nominees consists of 94 offensive players, 56 defensive players and 17 special teams players.

In the next step in the selection process, a screening committee will reduce the list to 50 (plus ties, if any, for the 50th spot). The results of that reduction will be announced in mid-October.

The full 50-person Hall of Fame Selection Committee then will reduce the list further – to 25 semifinalists later this fall. Another vote will create the list of 15 finalists who will be discussed at the annual meeting ahead of Super Bowl LVIX that will produce the new class, which can consist of three, four or five modern-era players under the Hall of Fame's bylaws.
