Steve Belichick on Bill Belichick: He’s ‘obviously old’, but not stuck in his ways

Bill Belichick started his first NFL job in 1975.

He won his first Super Bowl as a defensive coordinator with the Giants 37 years ago. Patriots quarterback Mac Jones, who turned 25 on Tuesday, wasn’t even two years old when Belichick became New England’s head coach in January of 2000.

At age 71, Bill Belichick is what his son Steve Belichick calls “obviously old.”

“He’s obviously old, he’s definitely old,” Steve Belichick said. “But, no, I haven’t seen a ton of changes in terms of his approach and stuff like that. I think he does a good job of adapting.
