It seems almost like a crime that these Hall of Fame-caliber players (or actual inductees) never got a chance to win a Super Bowl. Some on this list never even got to the “Big Dance,” despite being among the best players to ever play the game at their respective positions.
As we ease onto Super Bowl XLIX in suburban Phoenix to see whether the Seattle Seahawks or the New England Patriots will win multiple Lombardi Trophies, let’s keep in mind those elite athletes who never even got one.
