In December, Hall of Fame coach Bill Parcells vehemently made the case for both Bill Belichick and Robert Kraft to be voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2026.

Belichick and Kraft were both shockingly omitted from the Class of 2026, leading Parcells to blast the voters.

“The snubs on both of these men … it’s ridiculous,” Parcells told senior NFL insider Dianna Russini. “They unquestionably deserve to be in.”

The two-time Super Bowl champion was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2013.

Parcells also gave his take on why his former colleagues were snubbed.

“The voters made a mockery of the whole thing,” he said, per Russini’s report. “Too many people get personal with their feelings instead of doing the job. That’s what happened here.”

The 84-year-old Parcells won both of his championships with the New York Giants before leading the New England Patriots for four seasons under Kraft from 1993 to 1996.
