Bill Belichick not elected to Hall of Fame on 1st ballot

As Bill Belichick has made the transition from the NFL to college football, the sports world has suspected that the head coach would be a lock for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, likely first-ballot. Though Belichick was a Pro Football Hall of Fame finalist, he will not be elected on the first ballot in what will be a shocking turn of events for some, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

“Bill Belichick, the 8-time Super Bowl-winning HC, is not a first-ballot Hall of Famer, per [Seth Wickersham] and [Don Van Natta Jr.],” Schefter wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “Belichick fell short of the 40 out of 50 votes needed for induction to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.”
