Former Patriots HC Bill Belichick set to prove that he doesn't need to coach to make millions

While Bill Belichick won't be on the sideline leading any team during the 2023 season, we will still see a lot of him. 

The former New England Patriots head coach has a lot lined up during his "break" from coaching and he is also proving that he doesn't need to be leading a team to make millions. 

According to The Athletic's Andrew Marchand, Belichick is set to make million with "an anticipated recurring role with the Manning brothers on ESPN’s 'Monday Night Football with Peyton and Eli.' He also has a book deal, along with "a potential inside football show and possibly a podcast."

"As Belichick’s full plans come into focus, the exact amount he will make is unknown, but it will be well into the millions, according to those briefed on his current and anticipated deals," Marchand wrote. 

Many people are used to the quiet Belichick, who refused to give anything away when speaking with the media during his 24 year run as head coach of the Patriots. 

But since he has left the coaching side for now, he has shown a completely different side. And people are loving it. 

It began during the 2023 season when Belichick appeared on College GameDay ahead of Army-Navy at Gillette Stadium. He had a huge smile on his face the entire time and cracked jokes with the group of analysts. 

And most recently, he appeared on the Pat McAfee show, announcing they he will be joining the former Colts punter as an analyst prior to the 2024 NFL Draft. 

As for the rest of Belichick's ventures, The Athletic adds that he has "discussed starting a podcast with different platforms," while also planning to write a book that will focus on leadership. 

So get ready to see Belichick plenty this upcoming season.
