The future of the Bill Belichick-Patriots relationship is very much up in the air, but it sounds like we can rule out one route.
In a column published by NFL.com on Saturday, trusted league insider Ian Rapoport revealed Belichick’s fate has not yet been decided. This was a counter to a previous report from NBC Sports Boston’s Tom E. Curran, who claimed team owner Robert Kraft settled on a plan to separate from Belichick following New England’s embarrassing showing in Germany.
If Rapoport’s new report is true, plenty of doors are open for the Patriots including a potential offseason Belichick trade.
