Peyton Manning and John Lynch were both announced among the 15 finalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame's 2021 class on Tuesday evening. Those elected will join an elite club in Canton, Ohio with the sport's greatest.

Manning joined Denver after many years with the Indianapolis Colts, throwing for a record 55 touchdowns and 5,477 yards in 2013 -- as well as helping lead the Broncos to the Super Bowl 50 title two years later.
