NFL Insider Details ‘Highly Unlikely’ Scenario For Bill Belichick
This may keep Belichick away from Jacksonville
Bill Belichick remains ready to take his next NFL coaching job in his year off the sidelines after 24 historic seasons with the New England Patriots.
He just needs an enticing vacancy.
The 2-9 Jacksonville Jaguars could be the destination if the franchise moves on from head coach Doug Pederson, who defeated Belichick and the Patriots with the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LII.
They haven’t played up to the level through injuries and inconsistency this season, but Belichick would have talent in Jacksonville centered around fourth-year quarterback Trevor Lawrence. The job could appeal to Belichick, but organizational power appears to remain a desire, and a potential obstacle, in any negotiations.
The Athletic’s Dianna Russini added insight to that detail.
“I’m told it’s highly unlikely that a partnership with GM Trent Baalke would take place, per sources,” Russini shared on X Monday.
Wanting total control kept Belichick away from the Atlanta Falcons. Could that be the case again if the Jaguars job open?
