Sports Seriously
Bill Belichick won’t be headed to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.
The former New England Patriots head coach, who won a record six Super Bowls in his 24-year tenure with the organization, was not selected for the Hall of Fame’s 2026 class, ESPN’s Seth Wickersham and Don Van Natta Jr. reported Jan. 27.
Belichick was the singular finalist in the coaching category, but he did not receive the necessary 40 of 50 votes to make the cut, according to the report.
The omission comes as a great surprise for one of the most accomplished figures in league history.
Belichick, 73, parted ways with the Patriots after the 2023 season and last year became the head coach at the University of North Carolina.
