Former Miami Dolphins wide receiver Mark Clayton was one of the NFL’s most dangerous playmakers of the 1980s — yet, more than 30 years after his final game, he’s still waiting for his call to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

In this passionate “You Know What I Think” essay, The Fish Tank’s Seth Levit lays out four undeniable reasons why Clayton’s gold jacket is long overdue. From his elite touchdown-to-reception ratio and decade-long dominance, to redefining what a small receiver could achieve in the NFL, Seth builds a case that’s impossible to ignore.

Chapters:

  • The elite art of turning catches into points
  • Dominating the 1980s alongside Marino
  • Shattering size stereotypes at wide receiver
  • Why great quarterbacks need great receivers — and Marino had Clayton
