Scoff if you will, but no story in the current football universe moves the needle like a story regarding 73-year-old North Carolina coach Bill Belichick and his 24-year-old girlfriend/handler/publicist Jordon Hudson.

Hudson and Belichick, the six-time Super Bowl-winning former NFL coach, met on a flight in 2021 and went public with their relationship last December. While their nearly 50-year age gap has raised eyebrows amid observers, the scandal has only grown as Hudson has taken on an increasingly central role in Belichick’s professional world.

North Carolina's Bill Belichick has addressed the attention surrounding girlfriend Jordon Hudson with his team, saying "she doesn't have anything to do with football."
