What happened: Brees will enter the Pro Football Hall of Fame at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium. The former quarterback is part of a five-member Class of 2026.

Why it matters: Brees will become the first first-ballot Hall of Famer in Saints history. His induction marks another franchise milestone after a career that produced multiple NFL passing records.

By the numbers: Brees led the NFL in passing yards seven times and recorded 123 career 300-yard games.

What to watch: The Class of 2026 will be enshrined Saturday in Canton.
