Story
72-Year-Old Bill Belichick, 6-Time Super Bowl Winner, Explored Jets Coaching Job Before Taking UNC Position
Dec 15, 2024, 08:00 AM
Bill Belichick, aged 72, the former head coach of the New England Patriots, contacted the New York Jets about their head coaching vacancy before accepting the job at the University of North Carolina. Belichick, who has a history with the Jets, reached out to gauge their interest but there were no formal discussions or meetings. The Jets, who fired their head coach Robert Saleh on October 8 and installed Jeff Ulbrich as interim coach, are currently 3-10 and searching for a new head coach and general manager. Belichick's interest in the Jets comes as a surprise given his past criticisms of the team's owner, Woody Johnson, and his strained relationship with the franchise due to events like the Spygate scandal. Belichick has won six Super Bowl titles with the Patriots and holds 333 career regular-season and postseason wins, trailing only Don Shula's 347.
