ORLANDO, Fla. -- New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick has had remarkable stability at the left tackle position over his 18-year tenure, but the position is currently in transition with Nate Solder signing a four-year, $62 million free-agent deal with the Giants.
Belichick addressed that situation, among other things, in his 27-minute meeting with reporters at Tuesday’s AFC coaches breakfast.
“Nate did a great job for us, and he has a great opportunity in New York. We wish him well,” Belichick said, noting that there is a lot of team-building to be done to determine who will ultimately replace him.
