Here are Clark's career statistics:
Receptions 699/ Yards 10856/ Yards per catch 15.5/ TDs 65/ Lg 84 yards
It would appear that these are indeed Hall Of Fame numbers by Gary Clark. But the 699 career receptions appears to be Clark's only limitation. Michael Irvin had 750 career receptions(just 51 more than Clark) with 1,000 yards or so more yards and he and Clark are both tied with 65 TD catches.
Irvin is in the HOF. Irvin's career numbers are truthfully no better than Clark's. Gary Clark is
due enshrinement.
