Aaron Donald isn’t eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame until 2029, but he could make another all-time list in 2026.
But while Donald still has a few years before he can be enshrined in Canton for his NFL career, his college career could be recognized sooner. The former Pittsburgh Panthers star was named to the 2026 College Football Hall of Fame ballot
The 2026 NFF College Football Hall of Fame Class will be officially inducted on Dec. 8, 2026.
Donald dominated the college ranks during his time at Pitt. He was a 2013 unanimous First Team All-American and won the Bednarik, Lombardi, Nagurski and Outland trophies. He finished his time in college as Pitt’s all-time tackles for a loss leader with 66. Donald added 29.5 sacks as well.
The Los Angeles Rams took Donald with the No. 13 pick in the 2014 NFL Draft. He went on to make 10 Pro Bowl teams in his 10 NFL seasons, as well as eight All-Pro teams and three Defensive Player of the Year awards. Donald tallied 111 sacks in his NFL career.
