"He had to deal with the toughest times of his career when he got fired by the Patriots.
"But now, he is happy, not stressing about getting another job as a coach or not, and living his best life."
Belichick applied for the Atlanta Falcons head coaching role just weeks after leaving the Patriots in January.
He missed out on the role and is currently preparing to enter his first NFL season since 1975 without a job in the league.
Across his glittering career, Belichick has won eight Super Bowl rings - two as an assistant, and six as head coach of New England.
The downsides of having a massive age gap relationship
Dr. Jenn Mann, MFT, a licesesed therapist, reveals the key issues experienced by romantic partners with a huge age gap between them.
Dr. Mann claimed it might initially feel exciting when one partner is much younger than the other, like Bill Belichick, 72, and Jordon Hudson, 24, who share a whopping 48-year age difference.
"When people get older, they might just think it is refreshing that a young woman is looking at them adoringly and is attracted to them and is interested in him," Dr. Mann told The U.S. Sun.
"[But] there is a huge gap in life experience — in just years on this planet, in the way that helps us to evolve, develop, and mature."
"Even the most mature young person, when there is a 40-year age gap, the older people are incredibly immature.
"You're not meeting in the middle regarding development and life experience."
Dr. Mann said one common consideration for older male partners would be the younger female wanting a father figure.
"Usually, younger women are drawn to much older men because of unresolved issues with their fathers," Dr. Mann added.
"This could be a lack of attention, love, someone not being there, or even someone being in the household but not being present the way she might wish he was."
Dr. Mann noted that sexual and intimacy issues might begin to be at play, given the older partner may not have as much energy.
What's more, for older men, "it becomes more difficult typically to get and maintain an erection," she said.
"There are problems related to sexual performance, which can create other risks when it comes to taking medication for sexual performance."
Socially, Dr. Mann suggested that issues may arise between a couple when they mix with friends from different generations.
"In this case, if they're hanging with Bill's friends in their seventies or even sixties and fifties, a 24-year-old woman at that table will likely struggle to find common ground socially," she said.

But a close pal of the 72-year-old believes his days on the sideline might finally be behind him.
"This is another shot at youthfulness," said a former Patriots colleague who spoke to The U.S. Sun on condition of anonymity.
"I don’t know if he is looking to go back to coaching again.
"I may be wrong, but I think he is realizing that there is more in life than just football."
He has found a great person that makes him happy, that is the most important thing.

"You can see the connection. They are a solid duo, two peas in a pod.
