Keion White Has Funny Comments on Bill Belichick-Jerod Mayo Comparison.New England Patriots DE Keion White hilariously outlined the difference between playing under Bill Belichick and Jerod Mayo — less swearing.
A new coaching change tends to mean an adjustment period for players. That’s exactly what the New England Patriots are experiencing going from playing under Bill Belichick for over two decades to Jerod Mayo, who’s never been a head coach at the NFL level before.
Every coach is different, meaning players might experience things — whether practice or game-plan-related — under one coach that they wouldn’t under the other. While it may take time for these differences to be made evident, Patriots defensive end Keion White has already outlined one thing that separates Mayo from Belichick.
Patriots News: Keion White Compares Mayo to Belichick
When the Patriots’ offseason activities (OTAs) opened earlier this week, White talked to reporters about the differences between being coached by Mayo and Belichick. According to Pro Football Talk’s Michael David Smith, the 25-year-old defender said there isn’t much of a difference aside from not having “Bill [Belichick] cursing us out every play anymore.”
Belichick is known for being one of the hardest coaches to play under, so it isn’t surprising that a rookie HC like Mayo curses a lot less. But while some players might not enjoy having obscenities hurled their way, the 72-year-old’s tough coaching style is one thing that White will miss about the ex-bench boss.
