Adam Schefter noted the field for Bill Belichick’s next team includes the franchises with openings and ones that still have a coach under contract.
The NFL coaching carousel was thrown into a jolt with the news that Bill Belichick and the Patriots are parting ways.
While this news was speculated all season, the idea of Belichick coaching somewhere other than New England is going to take some getting used to, given that he spent nearly a quarter-century there and won six Super Bowls.
On ESPN’s “Get Up” on Thursday, NFL insider Adam Schefter was talking about what comes next, and included the juicy tidbit that the field for Belichick’s next team includes not just the seven franchises with head coach openings, but also ones that still have a coach under contract — including potential playoff teams.
“I think it would be a mistake to look at the board with just seven other openings right now,” Schefter said.
