The 2026 Pro Football Hall of Fame Class could have a number of first-year eligible former greats including quarterback Drew Brees and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald—both of whom should headline next year’s inductees.
However, there are also two former Indianapolis Colts veteran players, running back Frank Gore and quarterback Philip Rivers, who will also be eligible for the first time.
Those two should be under heavy consideration, along with two Colts’ holdovers from this year’s unchosen modern-era finalists: Adam Vinatieri and Reggie Wayne, as well as others.
