Bill Belichick is thankful for the 24 years he spent with the Patriots.
New England's former head coach wrote a thank-you letter to fans that appeared in Sunday's edition of The Boston Globe.
Belichick began the letter saying New England has the most passionate pro sports fans in America, and that he was blessed to feel the "passion and power."
He also noted that while the Patriots are the only NFL team representing six states, "Patriots Nation knows no borders."
After six Super Bowl championships over the course of 24 seasons, Belichick and the Patriots mutually parted ways at the conclusion of the 2023 regular season.
