Former New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick wrote a thank-you letter to fans that appeared in a full-page ad of Sunday’s edition of The Boston Globe.
The future Hall of Famer and the Patriots “mutually agreed” to part ways on January 11, wrapping up a legacy in New England that includes six championships, 9 trips to the Super Bowl, 17 division titles, and 266 wins with the team.
“Nowhere in America are pro sports fans as passionate as in New England and for 24 years, I was blessed to feel your passion and power,” Belichick wrote.
