BILL BELICHICK INTERVIEWS FOR FALCONS HEAD COACH JOB

Atlanta has interviewed Belichick, Michigan Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh, Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald, Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan, San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Steve Wilks, Carolina Panthers defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero and Ravens assistant head coach/defensive line coach Anthony Weaver.

Belichick became available when he and the New England Patriots "mutually agreed to part ways, amicably." Belichick spent 24 years in New England, winning six Super Bowls along the way. 

The last few seasons were a struggle for Belichick and the Patriots, missing out on the postseason in three of the last four seasons without Tom Brady under center. 

New England went 4-13 during the 2023 NFL season, finishing the year tied for the second-worst record in the league.
