Bill Belichick’s on the clock but this time, it’s not for football. His girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, turns 24 tomorrow, and all eyes are on him to see if he can pull off a celebration worthy of a six-time Super Bowl-winning coach.
Hudson, who’s been by Belichick’s side as a social media coordinator, cheerleader, and unofficial assistant GM for his North Carolina football gig, is about to have her first birthday since their relationship went public. And let’s be honest, people are more interested in this than they were in Belichick’s last couple of Patriots seasons.
The big question: Will Bill bring the bling? Could there be a ring in the mix? Imagine it—Belichick, known for his legendary “Do Your Job” motto, drops to one knee and says, “Sweetheart, we’ve dominated in all three phases. Now it’s on to marriage. Do your job and say ‘yes.’”
If it happens, Hudson will be wearing some serious hardware, and Bill might need a Life Alert necklace to help him get up.
Their relationship, which started when the then-60-something NFL coach met the college cheerleader on a flight, has been one of the wildest storylines in Patriots Nation. It’s got everything an age gap that could inspire a Netflix doc, a football dynasty connection, and, of course, social media moments where Belichick has gone from grumpy “Snap Face” critic to full-blown Instagram boyfriend.
But while the world watches for a possible proposal, there’s another reality: Belichick’s coaching days in the NFL seem to be behind him. The old-school football genius has been struggling to find a new gig, and even his protégés are moving on from his coaching tree. Now, he’s betting on UNC football, hoping to build something after failing to do so post-Brady in New England.
For now, though, it’s not about wins, losses, or job offers it’s about cake, candles, and maybe, just maybe, a diamond ring.
