‘InVINCEible’ Wilfork Takes Rightful Place in Patriots Hall of Fame

FOXBORO — On a seemingly ordinary Tuesday in May 2022, New England Patriots legend Vince Wilfork awoke to a missed call from a 508 area code.

While Wifork may have had a hunch as to the reason behind the call from the New England area, it was not until he returned it that he discovered the call to have come from Patriots CEO and Chairman Robert Kraft.

Once Kraft’s assistant had transferred the call to Wilfork, the Pats owner informed his former star defensive lineman that he had been voted by the fans as the 32nd inductee into the Patriots Hall of Fame.
