Bill Belichick’s future as the head coach of the New England Patriots might be in question, but the respect he’s earned from opposing players over his career certainly isn’t.
After the Patriots dropped to an abysmal 3-11 record following Sunday’s loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, the long-time strategist stopped to chat with tight end Travis Kelce. Kelce went in-depth on what was shared between the two on this week’s episode of the New Heights podcast.

“I just mentioned how much I respect him and how much it’s always the biggest challenge I go up against in the National Football League, going up against one of his defenses,” Kelce stated.
“I just wanted to make sure he heard that from my mouth, man,” he continued, “because it’s been a pleasure going up against him all these years.”
