Belichick is staying in New England. OK, not that Belichick, but there is one expected to stay with the Patriots in 2024. Safeties coach Brian Belichick is staying put, according to ESPN. Brian has worked in this role for four seasons and with the team for eight seasons.

Patriots new head coach Jared Mayo, who is taking over for Bill Belichick, called Brian a “great coach.” Before becoming the head coach, Mayo was the team’s linebackers coach and worked with Brian, so he has seen first hand what he brings to New England. Mayo said Brian is welcome to remain with the team if he chooses.

In 2016, Brian — who is Bill Belichick’s son — got his start with the team as a scouting assistant, before moving to coaching assistant from 2017 to 2019 and then taking the role as safeties coach. 

If he does remain, he will work under new defensive coordinator DeMarcus Covington, who was named DC after spending years with the team as a coaching assistant, outside linebackers coach and most recently the defensive line coach.
