Legendary Patriots Coach Bill Belichick Gets Next NFL Gig
By Movieguide® Contributor
Legendary Patriots coach Bill Belichick is set to join The CW’s INSIDE THE NFL to share his insight alongside Ryan Clark, Chad Johnson and Chris Long.
“I’m thrilled to join my new team at NFL Films and to work on such a historic television franchise,” Belichick said. “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.”
“Bill Belichick joining INSIDE THE NFL is a true game-changer for this storied franchise and the CW,” added Dennis Miller, president of The CW Network. “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 not 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.”
The CW will host INSIDE THE NFL for the second season since picking it up from Paramount in 2023. Starting at the beginning of 2024, episodes also became available on Netflix the day after they aired on TV.
Belichick is regarded as one of the greatest head football coaches of all time. He was hired as the head coach of the New England Patriots in 2000 where he would spend the next 24 seasons creating all-star team after all-star team. During his time at the helm, he won a record-tying six NFL titles in nine tries.
The coach’s gig on INSIDE THE NFL is not the only media engagement he has on his schedule since leaving the Patriots after last season. He has also signed on to join ESPN’s THE PAT MCAFEE SHOW every Monday, as well as serve as a “permanent guest” on the MANNINGCAST with Eli and Peyton Manning during the 2024-25 NFL season.
