Rob Gronkowski said the Falcons should hire Bill Belichick and give him full control

So far, teams have reportedly been hesitant to hire Bill Belichick.

He’s had a pair of interviews with the Falcons, but that’s about it in terms of what has been reported.

Earlier this week, The Athletic’s Josh Kendall reported that Belichick’s candidacy for the Falcons opening had “lost momentum.”

NBC Sports’ Peter King said that it was “weird” that Belichick hasn’t gotten more interviews. Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer said that teams are interested in Belichick as a coach, but not necessarily as someone who makes personnel decisions.

Former Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski is in favor of letting Belichick have full control over coaching and personnel decisions.
