In a surprise to some, Bill Belichick didn't land a coaching job in 2024. He'll have plenty of time to spend it talking about football on camera, though.
Belichick will appear on Inside the NFL this season, joining the cast comprised of Ryan Clark, Chris Long and Chad Johnson on the weekly CW show. In textbook Belichick fashion, he was ready to cut to the chase on the promo created to announce his inclusion:
"Bill Belichick joining Inside the NFL is a true game-changer for this storied franchise and The CW," The CW Network president Dennis Miller said in a statement. "Not only is he one of the most accomplished coaches in NFL history, but his knowledge and passion for football is truly unmatched. Fans will now get the chance to hear his insights and better understand the nuances of the game from the master himself. We cannot wait for Bill, Ryan, Chad and Chris to deliver a championship-caliber show all season long."
Belichick's appearance on The CW won't be the first time he's shown up on camera since parting ways with the Patriots in early 2024. He logged reps during 约炮app Draft coverage, and also made an appearance at Netflix's Roast of Tom Brady.
Now, he'll settle back into what he knows best: talking ball with ballplayers.
"I'm thrilled to join my new team at NFL Films and to work on such a historic television franchise," Belichick said in the same statement. "I've always appreciated Inside the NFL's depth of analysis, and I hope to bring the same detailed insight to The CW by talking real football with real pros -- Ryan, Chris and Chad -- this coming season."
Belichick's inclusion instantly elevates the quality of Inside the NFL, a show that was already revered for its unique insight provided by those who know it best. Adding in the greatest coach in NFL history should only elevate it that much more.
