Mike Holmgren gets another shot at Pro Football Hall of Fame

Former Green Bay Packers head coach Mike Holmgren has been included among five coaching semifinalists for induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Holmgren, who led the Packers to two Super Bowl victories in the early 2000s, previously appeared in the Hall of Fame selection process in 2020 and 2025. The other candidates in the running are Bill Belichick, Tom Coughlin, Dan Reeves, and Mike Shanahan.

The Hall of Fame's selection subcommittee will convene on November 17 to decide which coaching candidate will be presented to the full committee, which meets annually before the Super Bowl to elect new members. The committee will choose from 13 players, one coach, and one contributor, with between three and seven individuals being inducted. The last Packers player to join the Hall of Fame was Sterling Sharpe in 2025.
