ESPN’s Pat McAfee is hoping to get former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick to appear on his TV show every week.
Belichick will likely have a lot of free time in the future after parting ways with New England and not landing with a new team during this season’s coaching carousel.
“I will do my best to get Bill Belichick on this program at least once a week in the future. At least once a week over the course of the football season,” McAfee said.
“Can you imagine if we bombarded Bill Belichick every week for an entire football season? That is if he wants to enter the media world and if he wants to be in our specific program. There’s a chance he’ll say no.’
McAfee went on to say that it would be a “dream come true” if he could land Belichick in a weekly spot on his show.
Pat McAfee wants ex-Patriots coach Bill Belichick to appear on his show every week
Belichick and the Patriots parted ways this season and he did not get a new coaching job
Ex-Patriots WR Julian Edelman (M) said he would get hurt if Belichick did McAfee’s show before his
“Know that I’m throwing my hat in the ring in a big way,” McAfee added.
Belichick previously had the opportunity to work with McAfee on air during an appearance on ESPN’s ‘College GameDay for the famous Army-Navy game.
If Belichick ends up appearing on McAfee’s show, it could strain his relationship with longtime former Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman, who previously stated he would feel “hurt” if his former coach appeared before his own podcast on the show from McAfee would appear.
“I swear if he does McAfee before he does my show it would hurt me,” he said, before joking, “I didn’t take all those team-friendly deals for nothing.”
Edelman spent all 11 seasons of his NFL career under Belichick in New England.
During that time, he recorded 620 receptions, 6,822 receiving yards and 36 touchdowns.
