Julian Edelman Weighs In on Jordon Hudson’s Influence Over Bill Belichick at UNC
Belichick, the North Carolina Tar Heels coach, is renowned for his impressive coaching skills. At age 73, he chose a partner, Hudson, who is 24, after splitting up with his former partner, Linda Holliday. Edelman, a retired American football wide receiver, expressed concerns about the situation.
While speaking on The Herd, Edelman said, “The number one thing we used to talk about all the time in New England was distractions. Let’s not make distractions; the game’s already as hard as it is to prepare for, to play, to coach, and you know, regardless of what her role is, Jordon, yeah, I thought he got an unfair public opinion on the whole thing because that happens all the time.’’
Speaking further on the effect of their relationship, he said, “We’re doing behind the scenes this that, you got someone who represents you, they’re going to jump in, but now that it’s gained and snowballed to what it’s become right now, we’re talking about it three weeks later. It’s becoming a distraction. So that’s what I’m sure, that’s what we all think right now, this is becoming a distraction. We gotta practice what we preach here.”
A Need to Take Action
The escalation of media attention on their relationship is a source of genuine concern for UNC, Belichick, and the fans. Hudson is involved in almost all his sporting activities, which could become problematic for Belichick’s tenure. The Tar Heels had a woeful 2024 season, and they are focused on improving this one.
