First-time nominees Eli Manning, Adam Vinatieri and Luke Kuechly are among the 25 semifinalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2025 with former Rams wide receiver Torry Holt hoping a 12th time is the charm.

Vinatieri, Kuechly, Manning, Terrell Suggs, Earl Thomas and Marshal Yanda are the first-time candidates who last played in 2019 in the pool of semifinalists, which will be reduced to 15 by the end of the current season.

Holt is a semifinalist for the 12th time and nine-time semifinalists Hines Ward and Darren Woodson have been debated by Selection Committee the second-longest. Woodson was first a semifinalist in 2015; Ward joined the list in 2016.

Offensive linemen Richmond Webb, who retired following the 2002 season, is also a first-time semifinalist.
