On Saturday, the Pro Football Hall of Fame will induct seven new members into its ranks. It promises to be a night of pageantry and memorable moments as the class of 2017 get their gold jackets and bronzed busts revealed.

Catch up with the 2017 Hall of Fame class

The full ceremony starts at 7 p.m. ET and will be televised on both ESPN and NFL Network. Viewers can stream it online at WatchESPN or Watch NFL Network.

This year’s class was decided in late January and revealed at the NFL Honors show the night before Super Bowl 51. It’s headlined by LaDainian Tomlinson and Kurt Warner, two of the NFL’s most iconic stars in the 2000s. Jason Taylor is also getting enshrined after a long and decorated career with the Miami Dolphins. In addition, players like Terrell Davis and Kenny Easley get their due after having to wait a long time to get in. Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is also getting inducted, so if nothing else, his speech should be interesting.

Class of 2017

Morten Andersen, kicker, 1982-2007
Presenter: His son, Sebastian Andersen

Andersen’s credentials include seven Pro Bowls, three All-Pro first-team selections, and he was named to both the All-1980s and All-1990s teams. He also holds the all-time career record with 565 made field goals. Kickers have long had a hard time getting into the Hall, so Andersen’s induction almost certainly clears the way for Adam Vinatieri to eventually get in.

Terrell Davis, running back, 1995-2001
Presenter: Agent and friend, Neil Schwartz

Although injuries cut Davis’ career short, he was an incredible weapon out of the backfield for the Denver Broncos, helping John Elway finally get over the hump and win two Super Bowls late in his career. Davis, who earned three Pro Bowl nods and three All-Pro first-team selections, is one of only seven players to rush for 2,000 yards in a single season. He was named the league’s 1998 MVP, 1996 and 1998 Offensive Player of the Year, and won Super Bowl MVP in 1998.

Kenny Easley, safety, 1981-87
Presenter: His high school coach, Tommy Rhodes

The 1984 Defensive Player of the Year was named to the All-1980s Team, five Pro Bowls, and three All-Pro first-teams. Easley was inducted by the Senior Committee. His career was relatively short due to a kidney condition, but he was a crucial piece on the Seattle Seahawks’ defense for many years, helping lead the young franchise to a string of playoff runs in the 1980s.

Jerry Jones, owner/GM, 1989-present
Presenter: His wife, Gene Jones

Jones bought the Cowboys in 1989 and more or less became the face of the franchise ever since. Under his ownership, Dallas won three Super Bowls and became the unofficial “team of the 90s” with future Hall of Famers like Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith, Michael Irvin, and Charles Haley. Today, the Cowboys are one of the richest sports franchises on the planet, with an estimated worth of $4.2 billion. Jerry is the most influential owner in the league and will probably outlive us all.

Jason Taylor, defensive lineman, 1997-2011
Presenter: His former Dolphins coach, Jimmy Johnson

One of the most fearsome pass rushers of his generation, Taylor was a consistent bright spot on a Dolphins team that slipped into mediocrity as the 2000s went on. His 139.5 sacks ranks seventh all-time. In his career, Taylor made six Pro Bowls, earned three All-Pro first-team selections, won 2006 Defensive Player of the Year, and was named to the All-2000s Team.

LaDainian Tomlinson, running back, 2001-11
Presenter: Former Chargers teammate, Lorenzo Neal

In 2006 Tomlinson set the single-season record with 31 total touchdowns, which still stands to this day. His versatility and pass-catching skills made him nearly unstoppable at the time, as Tomlinson set a new standard for multi-purpose running backs. His accolades include the following: five Pro Bowls, three All-Pro first-team selections, 2006 MVP and Offensive Player of the Year, and named to the All-2000s Team. LT ranks fifth all-time with 13,684 rushing yards and third with 162 touchdowns.

Kurt Warner, quarterback, 1998-2009
Presenter: His wife, Brenda Warner

Warner came out of nowhere in 1999 to take the league by storm, leading the St. Louis Rams to the Super Bowl title and ushering in the “Greatest Show on Turf.” He took the Rams back to the big game two years later, only to fall short to Tom Brady’s first of five Super Bowl victories. Warner’s career got a second wind when he went to Arizona and led the Cardinals to their first-ever Super Bowl appearance. He made it to four Pro Bowls, earned two All-Pro first-team selections, and was named the NFL’s MVP in 1999 and 2001.

Here’s how to watch this year’s seven inductees.
