The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced its 2026 class Thursday night, with five players, including quarterback Drew Brees and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald, selected for enshrinement later this year. Brees and Fitzgerald received the nod in their first year of eligibility. They'll be joined by kicker Adam Vinatieri and linebacker Luke Kuechly, who were in their second year of eligibility. And rounding out the class is running back Roger Craig, who was a senior finalist.
From the football field to the business world, he told Business Insider that he's long reminded himself to "trust the process." That's proven successful, Brees said, whether he's helping someone new to the NFL get their bearings or in a meeting looking to retain as much information as he can. When it comes to learning, he said that he has long relied on a simple, analog tactic to get ahead on the field and in business: being a "pretty voracious" and "old-school" notetaker.
