At the NFL Honors event on Thursday night, which celebrated the top players and figures in the sport for the 2024 season, former New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick made an appearance that sparked attention. Belichick, now the head coach at North Carolina, attended the awards show with his 24-year-old girlfriend, Jordon Hudson.
While age differences in relationships are not typically a major topic, the fact that Belichick is 72 years old made his choice of date a point of humor. The jokes quickly circulated on social media, and even the show’s host, Snoop Dogg, poked fun at the six-time Super Bowl-winning coach during his opening monologue. For added comedy, Snoop also threw some playful shade at the Dallas Cowboys.
Snoop Dogg, during his opening monologue at the NFL Honors, humorously reflected on his long-time love for football. He joked, “I remember when the Cowboys were good and the Chiefs were bad. And I also remember when Bill Belichick’s girlfriend wasn’t even born yet.”
After the joke, both Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson were all smiles, showing that Belichick is able to take a joke in stride and is a good sport about it.
