The New England Patriots had perhaps the most impactful announcement for the football world at the end of the 2023 season. Back then, it was announced that the Patriots and head coach Bill Belichick would part ways and Jerod Mayo would take Belichick’s place.
After spending more than four decades coaching in the NFL and sitting at the age of 72, Belichick is certainly entitled to a wonderful retirement. However, nobody would have guessed just how wonderful it would start out for Belichick with the latest report about his new girlfriend.
Bill Belichick Reportedly Dating 24-Year-Old Cheerleader
Earlier today, TMZ released a bombshell report that speculated Belichick is dating someone exactly 1/3 his age! Belichick (72) is rumored to be dating a 24-year-old cheerleader. Her name is Jordon Hudson, and the two supposedly met on a flight to Florida three years ago.
The article revealed that the two of them tried to be discrete about their relationship until Belichick stepped away from the Patriots. However, these two seem to have made more public appearances together such as during Belichick’s trip to Croatia and during Tom Brady’s Patriots Hall of Fame induction ceremony.
New England Patriots Players Knew?
While this news may be stunning for football fans, it did not seem to catch as many former Patriots players by surprise. One of the most notable examples of this is former Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski.
Gronkowski and Belichick were two of the most notable guests during the “Roast of Tom Brady” special on Netflix. When it was Gronkowski’s turn to speak, he did not hold back when it comes to Belichick. Gronkowski jokingly claimed that Belichick was scouting his new girlfriend from Foxborough High School, resulting in roaring laughter from the audience.
Bill Belichick’s Net Worth
Considering the 48-year age difference between Belichick and Hudson, financial motivation will certainly come into question here. While an exact figure is not known for Belichick, it is safe to say he made plenty of money during his tenure with the New England Patriots.
So, how much is Belichick worth? One report estimates that he is worth around $70 million. The article also went on to say that Belichick made more than $20 million per year by the end of his tenure with the New England Patriots. Assuming these figures are correct, it should be more than enough money to finance a wonderful retirement.
