On Sunday, hours earlier than the Patriots beat the Payments for his or her first house win of the season, experiences of a “profitable” multi-year Invoice Belichick contract extension surfaced.

NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport was first with the information.

Nonetheless, Belichick’s reported new deal received’t have an effect on his future with the Patriots, in response to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

“He at all times retains particulars of his offers very non-public,” Schefter stated throughout an look on ESPN’s Pat McAfee Show. “Particulars of his deal by no means get out and I don’t imagine a deal now has any bearing on his future going ahead. I actually don’t. I believe him and Robert Kraft will sit down on the finish of the 12 months and decide mutually about what they every wish to do whether or not he has an extension or not.”

The Patriots are 2-5. Each wins have come in opposition to AFC East opponents. New England, regardless of its rocky begin, is 2-1 in division play.
