The former quarterback, is now expected to become NFL head coach in…
The thought that Belichick would accept a demotion after serving as both the Patriots’ head coach and general manager for so many years and with such extraordinary success defies belief. However, if he wants to stay in the game, that may be necessary—at least for a season or two.
“The Seahawks and Commanders are the remaining two head coach positions this cycle. According to league insiders, neither team is expected to hire someone until next week, following Sunday’s conference championship games.” Schefter wrote to X. “Available coaches for the final two available spots include Bill Belichick, Pete Carroll, Aaron Glenn, Ben Johnson, Anthony Weaver, Mike Macdonald, Ejiro Evero, Dan Quinn and Bobby Slowik.”
According to Pro Football Talk, neither organization had interviewed Belichick as of Thursday, making it doubtful that he will be in charge of a team come training camp in the spring.
Several broadcasting companies would certainly welcome an NFL personality with Belichick’s track record of success and name recognition, and he could likely have his pick of open positions. However, if Belichick doesn’t want to work in media, a DC job could make sense.
