Following 24 seasons as head coach of the New England Patriots, Bill Belichick is parting ways with the team after an underwhelming season resulted in the Patriots finishing 4-13, tied for the second-worst in the NFL.

Bill Belichick

Belichick’s departure from the Patriots was reported this morning by ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Mike Reiss.

“There was said to be no conflict, no disagreement,” the ESPN report stated. “In the end, productive talks resulted in a mutual decision that left both sides comfortable and at ease.”

As one of the longest-tenured coaches with a single team in NFL history, the end of Belichick’s career with the Patriots marks the end of the most successful run of any coach in the modern NFL.
