Bill Belichick Has 'Clearly' Made Decision On 2025 NFL Season

Bill Belichick has reportedly "clearly" made a decision on the 2025 NFL season.

The legendary NFL head coach is sitting out this year - coaching wise, anyway. Belichick is working in the media, covering the sport for ESPN and other media outlets, but many continue to wonder if he'll be back for the 2025 season. Belichick interviewed for a couple of different jobs after getting ousted by the New England Patriots following the 2023 season. However, no team chose to hire Belichick, forcing him to sit out the 2024 season. 

Belichick has appeared to enjoy the media life, along with his time with his much younger girlfriend, but he's a legendary NFL head coach, after all. Will he be back in 2025?

It sounds like it.

Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio is reporting that Belichick clearly wants to coach in 2025.

There have been multiple reports over the past several months that Bill Belichick wants to coach again in 2025. There was another one today. There might be another one tomorrow. Or next Sunday. Or the next.

Of course he wants to coach again. His various and sundry media platforms during the 2024 season weren't about the money. They're about building the case to resume the chase for Don Shula's all-time wins record.

This comes as no surprise, of course.

By all indications, Belichick wants back into the coaching world. The question at this point is which team will hire him? The Dallas Cowboys will probably be in need of a new head coach, with Mike McCarthy in the final year of his contract and the Cowboys struggling at 3-6. The Jaguars could also be in a similar boat, potentially firing Doug Pederson.

And maybe the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Las Vegas Raiders and Chicago Bears jobs will open up, too.

One thing seems to be clear, though: Belichick wants back into the coaching world.
