CANTON, Ohio, Aug. 3 (UPI) -- Running back Marcus Allen headlines the Class of 2003 that will be enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Sunday in Canton, Ohio.
The only player to earn a Heisman Trophy, NFL Most Valuable Player and Super Bowl MVP, Allen was elected in his first year of eligibility.
Joining Allen will be James Lofton, who ranks third all-time with 14,004 receiving yards, Houston Oilers defensive end Elvin Bethea and Buffalo Bills guard Joe DeLamielleure.
Former Kansas City Chiefs coach Hank Stram, the recommended nominee of the Hall's Senior Committee, also will be enshrined.
