The Carolina Panthers could pursue Bill Belichick if he and the New England Patriots part ways at the end of the 2023 season.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that while Belichick is unlikely to be "outright fired" by owner Robert Kraft, the two sides are likely to discuss a split in the coming days. New England sits at 4-12 heading into Sunday's season finale against the New York Jets and will miss the playoffs for the third time in four years.
The Washington Commanders, Los Angeles Chargers and Las Vegas Raiders have been speculated about as potential suitors for Belichick but are not currently expected to seriously pursue the 71-year-old coach.
