Former Seahawks defensive tackle Cortez Kennedy is a finalist for the 2012 Pro Football Hall of Fame class.

ESPN.com’s Mike Sando, a Hall of Fame selector, told “Bob and Groz” on Tuesday that the absence of a “slam dunk” candidate on this year’s ballot works in Kennedy’s favor.

Kennedy will find out Saturday whether or not he’s a Hall of Famer. Bob and Groz say in the video below that regardless of how the voting goes, he deserves to be one.
