Tennessee Titans 2021 third-round pick and cornerback, Elijah Molden, isn’t just a promising young prospect entering his rookie season, he’s also a student of the game who appreciates its history.
After all, his father, Alex, spent eight seasons in the league from 1996 through 2003, so Elijah got a firsthand look at that era of football.
With Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinements occurring over the weekend, including for former Titans guard Steve Hutchinson (full speech and photos here), Molden took to Twitter to say he believes Tampa Bay Buccaneers great, defensive back Ronde Barber, deserves a gold jacket.
“Ronde Barber is due for a gold jacket… jus sayin,” Molden tweeted.

Barber, who was a finalist for the Class of 2021, had quite the career, which spanned 16 seasons, all coming with the Bucs.
The Virginia product won a Super Bowl, and was a five-time Pro Bowler and three-time First-Team All-Pro. On top of that, Barber was also named to the NFL’s All-Decade Team of the 2000s (second team) back in 2010.
