Members of the Cleveland Browns Legends Programby armac - 67 cards (Last updated on Nov 20, 2023) |
The Cleveland Browns organization honors the team's all-time greats through the Cleveland Browns Legends Program. This program honors the men who have contributed to the success of the Browns organization. The Legends Program started in 2001 with the automatic induction of the Browns' then Pro Football Hall of Famers along with the initial class of five other inductees.
Here are the basic guidelines for the Cleveland Browns Legends Program:
The three requirements to be eligible for consideration for induction are:
1. Candidates will have played for at least five seasons with the Cleveland Browns.
2. Candidates must have been a major contributor at their respective positions.
3. Candidates will have been retired from playing professional football for at least five years.
Starting in 2010, the number of yearly inductees was set at two.
