The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced changes to its rules on Friday.
This just in: the Pro Football Hall of Fame has revised its eligibility period for coaches from five seasons spent out of the game to one. With Pete Carroll and Bill Belichick both having been relieved of their positions in 2024, this makes eight-time Super Bowl-winning Belichick and, more importantly, Super Bowl 48-demolishing Pete Carroll eligible for enshrinement as early as 2026.
The Hall of Fame’s new bylaws received approval from its Board of Directors this month and will immediately take effect. There is no expiration date. It is quite certain that Bill Belichick would be an immediate—first–ballot—Hall of Famer. With eight Super Bowl rings , he is widely regarded as the greatest NFL head coach of all time. Pete Carroll? Heck yeah, he belongs in the Hall of Fame. In the 1990s, Pete was head coach of the Jets and Patriots before heading to the PAC-10 in 2000.
