Bill Belichick Just Ripped Off The New England Patriots For Millions

Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots will always be synonymous with one another. Their 23-year run together yielded some of the greatest teams and dynasties this league has ever seen. However, Tom Brady’s departure led to a fall out between the two just a few years later.

Now, Belichick seems to be taking one last opportunity to “take” from his old team.

In terms of trademarks, Bill Belichick and girlfriend Jordon Hudson are following Taylor Swift’s lead:

Since leaving the New England Patriots last year, multiple reports have detailed the soured relationship between Belichick and team owner Robert Kraft. Renowned as a football genius, Belichick also found a crafty business loophole to get back at Kraft.

According to Us Weekly, Belichick and Hudson filed trademarks for iconic Patriots team phrases, including “Do your job,” “No days off,” and “Ignore the noise.” These trademarks are owned by Kraft, but Hudson was able to take advantage of a loophole by putting “Bill’s Version) at the end of each trademark filing.

For those unaware, Taylor Swift has filed trademarks with “Taylor’s Version” in her re-recorded albums. With Belichick and Hudson following that blueprint, the legendary football head coach will have full freedom to use at Chapel Hill, which he made legendary in Foxborough.

Belichick was employed by an NFL team every year from 1975 to 2023, beginning with the Baltimore Colts (now Indianapolis Colts). Belichick was surprisingly passed over in the 2024 head coach hiring cycle, keeping him out of NFL employment for the first time in 50 years.

North Carolina marks the first college coaching position of Belichick’s illustrious career. Of course, Belichick may go back to the NFL if he has a successful first year on Chapel Hill.

It is surprising to see the two go after trademarks that he undoubtedly established while he was in New England. It will be interesting to see if there is any kick back for this move. The fact that Belichick’s 24-year-old girlfriend seems to be in the middle of it all adds another layer of drama that fans didn’t expect.
