Bill Belichick is a future first-ballot Hall of Famer, the most successful coach in modern NFL history, and for the first time in a quarter century available to be hired. And yet, it seems increasingly likely that he will not be serving as head coach in 2024.
The Atlanta Falcons, the only team he interviewed with after his mutual split from the New England Patriots, have decided to go in another direction at head coach. With Raheem Morris taking the position, and Belichick having been neither linked to the only other remaining vacancies — the Seattle Seahawks’ and Washington Commanders’, the writing appears to be on the wall for the soon-to-be 72-year-old.
