Bill Belichick won’t have a team in the 2024 season. After announcing his departure from the New England Patriots, the legendary head coach has been left without offers. Undoubtedly, nothing has been the same since he showed the exit door to Tom Brady.
The Atlanta Falcons had two interviews with him, but, in the end, owner Arthur Blank chose Raheem Morris to lead their rebuilding process after his great job as defensive coordinator of the Los Angeles Rams.
As a consequence, the big question in the NFL is if Bill Belichick will have a team in 2024. Right now, it is fair to say that the odds are really slim considering the latest decisions by many franchises.
It’s important to remember that Belichick is 71-years and is chasing Don Shula for most wins by a head coach in NFL history. That record, and hoisting a Vince Lombardi trophy without Brady, will end the debate about the greatest of all time.

What will be the next team of Bill Belichick?
Right now, the Washington Commanders are the only team without a head coach in the NFL. The other vacancy left was filled on Wednesday when the Seattle Seahawks confirmed the arrival of Mike Macdonald, who was sensational as defensive coordinator of the Baltimore Ravens.
The big problem for Belichick is that the Commanders have already confirmed they won’t pursue the legend. As a consequence, unless the Chiefs or the 49ers shock the NFL after the Super Bowl, there are no more spots available.

These were the franchises which announced new head coaches: Jerod Mayo (New England Patriots), Dave Canales (Carolina Panthers), Raheem Morris (Atlanta Falcons), Brian Callahan (Tennessee Titans), Mike Macdonald (Seattle Seahawks) and Jim Harbaugh (Los Angeles Chargers).
Furthermore, three teams confirmed major decisions about their current situation. Mike McCarthy will stay with the Dallas Cowboys, the Pittsburgh Steelers will extend Mike Tomlin’s contract and Antonio Pierce is no longer interim as he’ll take over the Raiders’ job permanently.
