According to a report from People.com, Jordon Hudson, the girlfriend of former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, is planning a "huge bash" to celebrate Belichick on the same day as the 2026 Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinement ceremony. The party will be attended by several of Belichick's former players and supporters who were outraged by his initial Hall of Fame snub.

Why it matters

Belichick's exclusion from the Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility sparked significant controversy and debate around the selection process. This party organized by his girlfriend is seen as a way to celebrate Belichick's legacy and accomplishments despite the Hall's decision.

The details

According to the report, Jordon Hudson's party will include invitations to Tom Brady, Jimmy Johnson, Bill Parcells "and others who were planning on attending Bill's HOF induction ceremony in Canton." The party will also include "many of the outspoken supporters from the wake of Belichick's HOF snub." If Belichick attends his own party that day, he will miss the actual Hall of Fame enshrinement ceremony in Canton.

  • The 2026 Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinement ceremony is scheduled for August 2026 in Canton, Ohio.
