So Here's My Answer: This Is The First Year He Was Eligible.

Former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre was inducted to the Pro Football Hall of Fame as a member of the Class of 2016 because he was one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play in the NFL, and has not played in an NFL game in 5 seasons, making him eligible for entry to the NFL for the first time this year.

Because he retired for good 5 years ago. One can't be selected for enshrinement until they have been out of the game for at least 5 years.

publicity... average qbs, who for the life of me cannot make hot reads or audible an adequate play, don't belong in the hall of fame...
