Dwight Freeney inducted into Hall of Fame: How X reacted
Indianapolis Colts legendary defensive end Dwight Freeney was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame as a member of the Class of 2024.
Freeney joined a long list of former Colts players, coaches and executives to earn a gold jacket, and he will officially be enshrined into the Hall of Fame in August during the annual ceremony in Canton.
Here’s how X (formerly Twitter) reacted to the news that Freeney was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame:
Hell yeah, Dwight Freeney.

Dwight Freeney is an NFL Hall of Famer.
Can we get a spin move on that bust?
Ask any left tackle from that era and they have nightmares over facing Freeney.

Congrats to @dwightfreeney! One of the most dominant pass rushers of his era with Colts.
With that patented spin move and surprising bull rush, he was one of the few sackmasters who could put a Hall of Fame left tackle like Jonathan Ogden on skates. https://t.co/zCKC1tFEG3

What always sticks with me is what great players say about other great players. Asked 20-year vet Jason Peters this year who the toughest guy he ever had to block was.
No hesitation. He said it was Dwight Freeney **by far** https://t.co/iGSZpLSNid pic.twitter.com/buR56BlNj7

Dwight Freeney and Andre Johnson had to wait way too long to get into the Hall. Both top tier players in NFL history. Well deserved

Pumped for Freeney! Golden era Colts were built around Peyton building leads so Freeney/Mathis could pin their ears back and terrorize QBs.
Didn’t invent the spin move, but perfected it and massively affected the way edges attack QBs now. https://t.co/SrborzQ738
