Former Bengals legend Ken Riley is now the 368th member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The hall enshrined him and others throughout a weekend-long event in Canton, Ohio.

He joins Anthony Muñoz and Paul Brown as Bengals in the HOF. All on his birthday weekend at that. Unfortunately, Riley passed away in 2020, but his family was there to take it all in.

Riley played all 15 of his seasons with the Bengals from 1969-1983, amassing the fifth-most interceptions in NFL history (68). He picked off a pass in every campaign as he helped a fledgling expansion team eventually make the Super Bowl during the 1981 season.

He ranks second to Dick “Night Train” Lane’s 68 interceptions among defensive backs. His 207 games played rank second behind former punter Kevin Huber in Bengals history. Huber just passed Riley this past season.

Check out some of the cool moments from this weekend's enshrinement.
