The New England Patriots have reportedly made a decision on Bill Belichick’s two sons after coming to a mutual parting of ways with the head coach.
The Pats opted to move on from the six-time Super Bowl winner after a 24-year stint with him in charge, but there were some questions over the futures of his sons. Steve Belichick worked as a defensive play-caller and linebackers coach under Bill while Brian Belichick coached safeties.
Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated is reporting that the younger Belichicks have been offered opportunities to remain with the team, with new HC Jerod Mayo having formed a close relationship with Steve.
“And, just to wrap this up, one other thing worth noting is that Belichick’s sons, defensive play-caller and linebackers coach Steve, and safeties coach Brian, have both already been offered the opportunity to return to the team for 2024,” Breer wrote. “Mayo and the elder son (Steve) have grown close as they’ve collaborated to run the Patriots’ defense the past five years.”
It will be interesting to see whether they will follow their father wherever he ends up next, though.
