Report: Patriots parting ways with Brian Belichick

The New England Patriots are parting ways with safeties coach Brian Belichick, ESPN reported Tuesday.

Belichick, the youngest son of six-time Super Bowl-winning coach Bill Belichick, has been with the team since 2016.

He worked as a scouting assistant (2016), coaching assistant (2017-19) and safeties coach (2020-24).

The Patriots hired head coach Mike Vrabel on Jan. 12. He replaced Jared Mayo, who was fired after posting a 4-13 record in 2024 in New England's first season without Bill Belichick since 1999.

North Carolina hired Bill Belichick as head coach on Dec. 11. Another son, Steve, has joined him as the defensive coordinator for the Tar Heels.
