Kevin Mawae to Receive HOF Ring of Excellence During Week 7

The Pro Football Hall of Fame and Kay® Jewelers, the Official Provider of the Pro Football Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence, will join in honoring Hall of Famer Kevin Mawae on Monday, Oct. 21 when the New York Jets host the New England Patriots.

Fans at the Week 7 matchup will witness Mawae receive his Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence during a special halftime presentation. The Hall’s President & CEO David Baker will present Mawae with the Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence. The game is slated to kick off at 8:15 PM ET at MetLife Stadium.

The Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence is one of three iconic symbols, along with the Hall of Fame Gold Jacket created by Haggar, and the Bronzed Bust, that represent the elite status of being a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Mawae received his Hall of Fame Gold Jacket and unveiled his Bronzed Bust during the 2019 Enshrinement Week Powered by Johnson Controls in early August.

“The game of football taught me accountability. It taught me discipline, sacrifice, and selflessness. It developed in me grit, tenacity and confidence. It challenged my faith. It grew my loyalty. It sealed my legacy,” Mawae shared during his Enshrinement speech on August 3.

HALL OF FAME RING OF EXCELLENCE

The Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence is created by Kay® Jewelers, the number one jewelry store in America and the Official Provider of the Pro Football Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence. The spectacular Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence is set in 14K gold with a total diamond weight of 1¾ carats. However, it is much more than a beautiful piece of jewelry. Intricate details on the ring reflect the special significance of enshrinement.

  • The outer diamonds create a “stadium” effect surrounding the football-shaped diamond center.
  • The vibrant blue gemstone was selected both for appearance and meaning, as blue is often associated with confidence, power and integrity – all traits of these incredible legendary football icons.
  • Mawae’s Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence is customized to reflect his unique career. A likeness of his Bronzed Bust, along with, “Center,” and “1994-2009” (his years in the NFL) appear on one side while “Mawae,” the Pro Football Hall of Fame logo and “Class of 2019” are included on the other.
  • Additionally, a special arbormark (or engraving) appears on the inside of the ring, which is Mawae’s Enshrinee number 324.
