What is the best landing spot for Bill Belichick? | THE HERD
Albert Breer joined Colin in discussing what would be the best landing spot for Bill Belichick this upcoming season.
Bill Belichick may be taking a year off from coaching in the NFL, but there was not a lack of teams trying to get him to join their organizations or coaching staffs.
Even the San Francisco 49ers threw their names into the Belichick sweepstakes, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.

"I did, I threw it out to him. He loves football so much that you never know what he ... I can't believe he's not a head coach of a team right now," Shanahan said Tuesday on Audacy's "The TK Show" podcast. "I know what I would do if I was an owner so that shocks me and the last thing you want to do is insult someone like Bill Belichick.
"But I know he just loves ball in its simplest form, so I threw it all out to him, whatever he wanted to do, (including defensive coordinator). I was like 'Would you be interested?' And he was very nice and appreciative, and he politely turned me down."
