Bill Belichick said farewell to New England Patriots fans with a full-page ad on page A3 in on Sunday.
The longtime Patriots coach, who mutually parted ways with the team last month, thanked fans for their passion and loyalty.
In a letter addressed “To Patriots Fans Everywhere,” Belichick wrote, “Nowhere in America are pro sports fans as passionate as in New England and for 24 years, I was blessed to feel your passion and power.”
The 71-year-old coach, who surprisingly did not land another head coaching job after missing out on the Atlanta Falcons opening following a pair of interviews — they hired Raheem Morris — and not getting much interest elsewhere, helped lead the Patriots to six Super Bowl titles in his 24 years at the helm.
