North Carolina football coach Bill Belichick said Friday night he “will not pursue any NFL head coaching vacancies.”
The first-year college coach has been linked to the New York Giants job ever since they fired Brian Daboll on Nov. 11. Belichick has been asked about the opening, given he is a former assistant with the organization, but he brushed it off.
On Friday, Nov. 14, he put out a statement:
“I have great respect and genuinely care for the New York Giants organization and both the Mara and Tisch families,” Belichick said. “It was a privilege for me to work for the Mara family and be a member of Coach Parcells’ staff for over a decade. However, despite circulating rumors, I have not and will not pursue any NFL head coaching vacancies.
“Since arriving in Chapel Hill, my commitment to the UNC Football program has not wavered.”
