While the Patriots will be in Super Bowl 2026, there will be no Patriots headed into the Pro Hall of Fame.   Robert Kraft joined Bill Belichick in being excluded from the Hall of Fame’s class of 2026 after failing to reach the necessary votes needed to be inducted, ESPN reported Tuesday morning, a week after news broke that the ex-Pats coach was not making it either.   The news isn’t expected to create the same outrage that swelled after Belichick had been snubbed from the Hall in his first year on the ballot, but it marked the closest that Kraft has come to being inducted in his 14 years of eligibility.
