Patriots owner Robert Kraft talks about firing Bill Belichick as coach after 24 years. What he said

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft opened up about the firing of coach Bill Belichick during a recent appearance on “The Breakfast Club” podcast.

Belichick and the Patriots parted ways after 24 years in the organization. The coach led New England through an unprecedented run of success. He struggled in the post-Tom Brady era, however, as he made the playoffs only once in his four seasons without the legendary quarterback.

Belichick was also the de facto general manager for New England. He had a tremendous hand in building the Patriots’ dynasty from the ground up.
