2021 Hall of Fame schedule, speech time: Everything you need to know about Calvin Johnson

Hall of Fame week already kicked off on Thursday night with the Dallas Cowboys and Pittsburgh Steelers kicking off the 2021 preseason with the Hall of Fame game. There are plenty more festivities down in Canton this weekend, and Detroit Lions fans should keep their eye on everything, because it’s a huge week for legendary receiver Calvin Johnson, who will be officially inducted into the 2021 class later this weekend.

It’s a unique weekend for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, as they will be inducting two teams into the hallowed grounds. The 2020 team—which never got their proper ceremony due to COVID-19 last year—will have their inductions speeches on Saturday. While the 2021 class, including Johnson, will take the podium on Sunday night.

Here’s all the information you need to know about the Hall of Fame weekend and when to tune in for Megatron.
