Robert Kraft will have to wait a little longer to see if he will be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
While he was named one of 12 finalists for Hall of Fame enshrinement in the Coach/Contributor category, Kraft was not selected as the 2024 honoree.
Instead it was the former Detroit Lions and Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Buddy Parker who was selected as the finalist.
Prior to the announcement, Bill Belichick said that they were "keeping our fingers crossed that we get the vote this year," but unfortunately Kraft was not picked.
This is the second year in a row that Kraft was not selected despite being a Hall of Fame finalist last year, losing out to Don Coryell
Kraft has had a vision for the future of the Patriots since he bought the team in 1994. He brought in Bill Belichick to lead the team in 2000, with the duo winning six Super Bowl championships together.
He turned the franchise around, making it one that will certainly go down in NFL history.
Despite not being picked for two years in a row, it is clear that he is well respected within the league and hopefully will be given the well-deserved accomplishment soon.
