Former New England Patriots and current Fox Sports NFL analyst Rob Gronkowski knows Bill Belichick well.
He has a theory that Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank hired Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris as the club’s head coach instead of Belichick. “I don’t think the Atlanta Falcons organization wanted to give up that much control and leave all the decisions up to Belichick,” Gronkowski told Fox News Digital’s Ryan Gaydos. “Other than that, I think Coach Belichick would be a great fit.
Gronkowski is not the first person to suggest that people in the Falcons organization are trying to prevent Blank from giving Belichick the keys to the kingdom.” On Monday’s edition of WFAN’s “Boomer & Joe,” retired quarterback and current CBS Sports NFL analyst Boomer Esiason said he was confident Blank “offered Bill the job” and that he was “the boss of the NFL.” but there will be a “caution.” I said I could. About how much power Belichick will have when it comes to personnel and draft decisions.
As for what’s next for Belichick, Gronkowski explained why he thinks the six-time Super Bowl coach should sit out the season. “I think Coach Belichick needs to take a year off from coaching,” Gronkowski said. “He put in the time.
He also coached in the NFL for over 50 years. I mean, he can take a year off, reinvent himself, find himself and start enjoying something other than football.” I expect Belichick to work as an NFL studio analyst for one of the league’s media partners next season. I think it will be done. …
According to Moses Massena of Barrett Sports Media, CBS may air “The NFL Today” multiple times after Super Bowl LVIII.”I think it would be good for him to come back next year and be ready to show where he’s going to hire the head coach next year,” Gronkowski added.
Belichick added that he could take a year off. . Belichick turns 73 in April 2025, so he only has two or three more seasons of coaching before he retires. If it’s true that Belichick’s age stopped at least some owners this winter, they probably don’t feel good about the situation 11 months later.
