The New England Patriots are only parting ways with Bill Belichick, not necessarily with the rest of his family.
Belichick’s sons, Steve and Brian, have received coaching offers to return to the Patriots coaching staff for the 2024 season, according to Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer. If they accept, they would work under Jerod Mayo, who replaced Bill Belichick as the team’s head coach last week.
“One other thing worth noting is that Belichick’s sons, defensive play-caller and linebackers coach Steve, and safeties coach Brian, have both already been offered the opportunity to return to the team for 2024,” Breer wrote Monday. “Mayo and the elder son (Steve) have grown close as they’ve collaborated to run the Patriots’ defense the past five years.”
