""I have great respect and genuinely care for the New York Giants organization and both the Mara and Tisch families. The New York Giants played an important role in my life and in my coaching journey. It was a privilege for me to work for the Mara family and be a member of Coach Parcells' staff for over a decade," Belichick shared on his personal Instagram account. "However, despite circulating rumors, I have not and will not pursue any NFL head coaching vacancies.""
"The 2-8 Giants fired head coach Brian Daboll earlier this week, who coached under Belichick on the Patriots several times throughout the 2000s and 2010s. Naturally, Belichick, who was an aforementioned coach on the Giants in several different roles between 1979-1990, was mentioned as a possible replacement. Belichick mutually agreed to part ways with the Patriots after the 2023 season following 23 years as the organization's head coach, winning six Super Bowls along the way."
Bill Belichick, age 73 and a former long-time New England Patriots head coach, stated he will not return to the NFL and specifically will not pursue the New York Giants job. He expressed respect and gratitude for the Giants organization and families tied to the franchise and noted the Giants' role in his coaching journey. The Giants recently fired Brian Daboll, and Belichick's previous work with the Giants prompted speculation. Belichick left the Patriots after 23 seasons with six Super Bowl wins, interviewed with the Falcons in January 2024, then took a year off and pursued media projects before becoming North Carolina's head coach in December 2024.
