Belichick: 'Heavily invested' in Pats, too early to decide future

Bill Belichick said Monday that no decisions have been made about his future, but he remains "heavily invested" in the New England Patriots organization.

"I'm under contract. I'm going to do what I always do, which is you know every day, I come in work as hard as I can to help the team and whatever way I can," he said, according to Kevin Patra of NFL.com. "So, that is what I'm going to continue to do. You know today was kind of wrap-up day for us with the players and have a meeting with them and then go from there.

"As far as any decisions or directions or anything like that for next year is way too early for that. The end of the year processes you know I don't think will be fundamentally different from the standpoint of how it's done."

Belichick suggested he's open to changes when asked if he would give up personnel control to remain in New England.

"Look, I'm for whatever collectively we decide as an organization is the best thing to help our football team," he said, according to Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald. "And I have multiple roles in that. And I rely on a lot of people to help me in those responsibilities.

"Someone has to have the final say. I rely on a lot of other people to help. Whatever that process is, I'm only part of it."

Belichick said he'll meet with owner Robert Kraft but didn't give a timeline for when the two would talk. He also refused to get into "hypothetical situations" about whether he'd want to coach another team if he left New England.

The legendary coach boasts six Super Bowl titles with the Patriots, but the team slumped to a 4-13 record in 2023, the worst of Belichick's tenure.
