As I enjoy giving arguments for the less obvious choices, I would like to argue for Robert Phelps’ inclusion into the Hall of Fame the day he decides to hang up his cleats. As a career #2 wide receiver, shadowed by the glory of Bradley Westfield, Phelps has put up 9524 yards in his 8 seasons in the league, with 56 touchdowns in 616 catches. All these numbers are among the top 10 among receivers in the NSFL. And that is only the regular season. Alongside his 3 Ultimus Cup rings, Phelps is in the Top 3 among receivers in all the receiver playoffs stats, once again only trailing Westfield.
Now critics might say that the fact that he’s been playing with other offensive superstars like Westfield and Mike Boss has given him more room on the field to perform, and it has indeed shown as Phelps had a “miserable” Season 8 by his standards, running only 497 yards for 6 touchdowns as the Otters have looked more vulnerable. In fact, a lot of Phelps’ performance has been in the early seasons of the league and not constant unlike other players.
It is clear that Phelps is slowing down and might not have many more seasons left but his achievements in the league on the Otters should be regarded as Hall of Fame worthy.
