Bill Belichick is having a lot of problems to find a team to coach in the 2024 NFL season. The former New England Patriots head coach has faced rejection from a new club, raising doubts about his presence on the field this year.

After parting ways with the Patriots, Bill Belichick garnered big interest from multiple teams seeking a head coach. Concurrently, as the Seahawks parted ways with Pete Carroll, speculation arose suggesting they might replace him with Belichick.
Nevertheless, it seems like the six-time Super Bowl champion won’t join the Seahawks this year. According to CBS, Seattle is going to name Mike Macdonald, defensive coordinator of the Baltimore Ravens, as their new head coach.
The 36-year-old is poised to become the NFL’s youngest coach, finalizing a six-year deal with the NFC West team. While this move shuts the door on Belichick, it marks a huge step forward for the Seahawks.
Macdonald did a remarkable job this year in enhancing the Ravens’ defense. The team concluded the 2023 season ranking first in the league in points allowed, sixth in passing, leading in the fewest touchdowns allowed, and second best in red zone efficiency.
