Bill Belichick has outlasted his peers.

Belichick took over the New England Patriots in 2000 and hasn’t looked back since, leading them to five Super Bowl wins and a 212-73 record through an impressive 18 seasons with the franchise.

But what about the other coaches around the league in 2000? Some were successful coaches who found jobs outside of football, while others seemed to fade into the background of the league.

Check out where the other NFL coaches from the 2000 season are today.
