Cowboys' Drew Pearson Reacts on Video After Being Snubbed by Pro Football HOF

Adam WellsJan 15, 2020

While 15 former NFL players and contributors got to celebrate Wednesday's announcement that they were elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Dallas Cowboys legend Drew Pearson was unhappy about being snubbed yet again. 

Pearson said "it broke my heart" when his name wasn't among those called for induction into the hallowed halls of Canton, Ohio.

A total of 20 former players, including Pearson, were named finalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame centennial class. From that group, Harold Carmichael and Mac Speedie, who played end before wide receiver became an official position, were the only pass-catchers to get elected. 

Pearson is one of the best wide receivers in Cowboys history. The three-time Pro Bowler spent his entire 11-year career with the organization from 1973-83 and ranks fourth on their all-time list in receptions (489) and receiving yards (7,822). 

He was named to the NFL All-Decade Team for the 1970s and was inducted into the Cowboys Ring of Honor in 2011.
