New England Patriots' new safeties coach has familiar name (Shutdown Corner)

The New England Patriots made all of their assistant coaches available to local media on Monday, and that meant the in-front-of-cameras debut of the team's new safeties coach: Steve Belichick.

The middle of head coach Bill Belichick's three children and the older of his two sons, Steve, 29, served as a defensive coaching assistant for four years before getting his first chance to run a position when there was a shakeup in the team's coaching staff.

A defensive assistant is pretty much a gopher for all of the other coaches on that side of the ball, and it's likely Steve Belichick also spent a lot of time breaking down film.
