Bill Belichick Drops Unexpected Bombshell in Direct Message to Robert Kraft—Patriots’ Future Hangs in the Balance
“I had been warned by multiple previous Patriots coaches, as well as other members of other NFL organizations and the media, that the New England job was going to come with many internal obstacles,” Bill continued. “I made it clear that we would have to change the way the team was managed to regain the previously attained success.”
Kraft made his comments during an appearance on the “Dudes on Dudes” podcast hosted by former Patriots greats Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski.
“The one that got questioned the most was in 1999,” Kraft explained. “I gave up a No. 1 draft pick for a coach that had only won a little over 40% of his games to get him out. … I think getting Bill Belichick to come to the Patriots in 1999 was a big risk, and I got hammered in the Boston area, but he was with us for 24 years. And we did OK.”
