“Anything can happen, especially in this sport, it’s like a New York minute right? It swings from one pendulum to the next,” Saleh said, via JetsWire.com. “He just needs to focus on week to week, just putting his best foot forward and just being the best version of him he can be…We just got to take it one day at a time.”

  • Curran points out that New England would never fire Belichick during the season.
  • Curran doesn’t think Belichick’s contract for the 2024 season would impede them from making a change.
