Steve Belichick explained he's different from Bill Belichick by roasting his dad's unemployment status

New Washington defensive coordinator Steve Belichick spend more than a decade coaching under his dad, legendary New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick.

However, he’s not afraid to poke fun at his dad’s lack of employment as the younger Belichick gets his career started at the collegiate level.

During media availability on Wednesday, Steve Belichick talked about how his dad is a mentor to him but also roasted him about how the two are different.

“I have a job; he doesn’t,” Steve Belichick quipped to the reporters present.

While you know he’s kidding, it’s still a shocking reality that Bill Belichick’s son has a job in football this year and he does not.

Former #Patriots coach Steve Belichick on the biggest difference between him and Bill Belichick:

“We definitely have similarities. I have a job, he doesn’t…

I look up to my, dad he’s a mentor to me, but I’m myself… just gonna be myself, not gonna try to be him.” pic.twitter.com/Qx3d8dCTZI

We’re sure that the elder Belichick is ready to get back into football sooner than later, and that some NFL team will give him another chance to lead their franchise to a Super Bowl.

For now, it’ll be Steve Belichick who carries on the family name in the sport. At the least, he’s got a great sense of humor about it.
