Bill Belichick is showing no signs of slowing down.
The iconic former coach of the New England Patriots, is stepping into a new role as a recurring guest on ESPN’s “ManningCast.”
This marks a notable shift for Belichick as he transitions from the sidelines to a broader presence in the media. His move into broadcasting is part of a larger media strategy that also includes a book deal and a gig with Pat McAfee.
“In his transition from the sidelines, Belichick, the longtime New England Patriots coach, will make millions with an anticipated recurring role with the Manning brothers on ESPN’s “Monday Night Football with Peyton and Eli,” a book deal, a potential inside football show and possibly a podcast, executives briefed on his plans told The Athletic.”

The announcement has generated a mixed response, with some fans excited to see Belichick in this new light, while others are skeptical about how his traditionally reserved media persona will translate to the more relaxed and conversational style of the “ManningCast.”
Nevertheless, Belichick’s deep knowledge and unparalleled NFL coaching achievements are expected to add a unique and insightful dimension to the program.
If Bill finds his new roles fulfilling, he might be less tempted to return to coaching.
