New England Patriots Reportedly ‘Already Decided’ to Move on From Bill Belichick in 2024

It’s been a growing rumor over the past few weeks, but Wednesday morning brought more light to Bill Belichick’s future with the New England Patriots. The Pats are 3-10 through 13 games, and they’re one of just two teams that have already been eliminated from the playoffs. The other? The Carolina Panthers (1-12), who have already fired their coach. NBC Sports Boston’s Tom E. Curran reported that team owner Robert Kraft has already made the decision to part ways with his six-time Super Bowl champion coach after the season ends. Belichick, in his typically dry deflecting tone, answered questions about the report on Wednesday morning by saying, “I’m getting ready for Kansas City.”

The Patriots rank dead last in the NFL in points per game (13.0). They’ve scored less than 10 points five times this season, including four games without a touchdown and two games where they didn’t score at all (0 points).
