NFL News: Bill Belichick makes final decision about retirement from coaching

A few months ago, Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots parted ways after 24 seasons. It was an epic working relationship with Robert Kraft which led to six Super Bowl victories.

However, the big problem for Belichick was his insistence to replace Tom Brady. Although the quarterback proved constantly that he was the greatest of all time, the head coach wanted to take a different direction.

As a consequence, in one of the major changes in NFL history, Brady went to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and won another championship. Meanwhile, Belichick failed with names such as Jimmy Garoppolo and Mac Jones.

Did Bill Belichick retire from NFL?

According to a report from Adam Schefter, Bill Belichick isn’t ready to retire from coaching. Although the legend couldn’t find a job in 2024, there’s a chance for a big comeback next year.

“Those who know Belichick best say that despite his burgeoning media résumé, the six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach still would like to return to coaching in 2025, but only in the right situations with good jobs. Belichick is expected to be choosy if and when he returns to the sideline, according to sources.”
