The New York Giants have given football some of its most unforgettable figures, and the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton is proof. Here is every Giant who earned that ultimate honor, and why each one still holds a special place in the hearts of fans.
Lawrence Taylor: Inducted 1999
Lawrence Taylor was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1999, and it is hard to imagine a more deserving honor. He redefined what a linebacker could be, bringing a ferocity and instinct to the Giants defense that opposing offenses simply had no answer for. LT is widely regarded as one of the greatest defensive players in NFL history, and his legacy in blue is as strong as ever.

Michael Strahan: Inducted 2014
Michael Strahan spent his entire career as a Giant, becoming the face of the franchise's defensive line and earning his Hall of Fame induction in 2014. His infectious energy and relentless motor made him a fan favorite from his first snap to his last, and his role in the Giants' Super Bowl XLII championship cemented his place in team lore. A framed photo of Strahan belongs in every Giants fan cave worth its salt.
