Bill Belichick 'top candidate' for Falcons head coaching job


 Bill Belichick has wasted no time after his legendary tenure with the New England Patriots came to an end last week.

After having his first interview with the Atlanta Falcons, the six-time Super Bowl champion flew into Atlanta last night on the private plane of Falcons owner Arthur Blank for a dinner, according to The Athletic.

Belichick is Atlanta’s "top candidate" with "more meetings to come," according to the report from The Athletic.

Belichick will meet for a second interview on Friday with Blank, CEO Rich McKay, president Greg Beadles and general manager Terry Fontenot, according to CBS. 


The Falcons parted ways with head coach Arthur Smith following his third season and a 7-10 season. 


Along with Belichick, Atlanta has interviewed Michigan Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh, Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald, Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan, San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Steve Wilks, Carolina Panthers defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero and Ravens assistant head coach/defensive line coach Anthony Weaver.
