The man aid he'd always be a "San Diego" Charger will officially become part of the Pro Football Hall of Fame this week.
Not only has Tomlinson always been a fan favorite but he has put so much into the San Diego community even though he did not grow up in San Diego. He was proud to call it home.
He owns NFL records for most touchdowns in a single season (31), most rushing touchdowns in a season (28) and most points in a season (186, all set in his 2006 MVP year). He also has more multiple-rushing touchdown games (50), most consecutive games with a rushing touchdown (14), most seasons with at least 10 rushing touchdowns (9), and he was the fastest player ever to gain 15,000 yards from scrimmage, doing it in just 121 NFL games.
The full 2017 Pro Football Hall of Fame class looks like this:
RB LaDainian Tomlinson
RB Terrell Davis
QB Kurt Warner
DE Jason Taylor
K Morten Andersen
Owner Jerry Jones
S Kenny Easley
