Bill Belichick’s Former Player Slams Him for Jordon Hudson Relationship: ‘Distraction’

The former quarterback was coached by Belichick in 2020.

Former NFL star Cam Newton didn’t shy away from voicing his opinion on Bill Belichick’s relationship with Jordon Hudson in a podcast Wednesday, slamming his former coach for not following his own advice. “I find it extremely interesting for a person who always led with this: ‘Do not be a distraction,’” Newton said in a Wednesday episode of his podcast 4th & 1 with Cam Newton.“We talking more about Jordon Hudson than talking about who’s our starting quarterback. You can’t name me three players on North Carolina’s roster right now besides Jordon Hudson.” A former quarterback, Cameron previously played with Belichick as part of the New England Patriots for one season in 2020. “Now you have that same situation with a 16-year-old that you’re trying to recruit. And you got to talk to his momma? This ain’t a good look,” he continued. Several of Belichick’s former colleagues and friends have spoken out about his relationship with Hudson in recent weeks. The couple have been at the epicenter of controversy following a viral, tense CBS interview that saw Hudson, who is also Belichick’s public relations representative, bar a reporter from asking the two how they met. The coach told ESPN earlier this week that Hudson “doesn’t have anything to do with UNC football.”
