Belichick was the head coach of the Patriots when it held an [[NFL sham tryouts|sham tryout]] for [[Tim Tebow]], which was apparently done to rehabilitate the team's image after its tight end Aaron Hernandez was arrested (and later convicted) of murder.

Belichick was one of the longest-tenured NFL head coaches, with over 32 years of coaching. In addition to the above, Belichick was also the head coach of the [[Cleveland Browns]] (1991-95). In 2000, the Patriots traded their first-round [[2000 NFL Draft]] choice to the [[New York Jets]] to acquire Belichick as their head coach.

Belichick's relationship at age 73 with a 24-year-old girlfriend created publicity, not all of it good, in 2025, as some friends of Belichick then expressed concern about him.
