The New England Patriots have dealt with their fair share of significant injuries throughout the season, and it appears the injury bug has now spread to the man in charge.
On Tuesday, Bill Belichick was sporting a black eye when he met with the media. Naturally, he didn’t want to discuss whatever it is that left him with quite the shiner.

The Patriots have had an injury or injury scare with almost every one of their key players this season, and now the coach? Don’t worry, Belichick is a warrior. He’s not going to let a measly swollen eye keep him out of his hoodie. And with one of his best offensive players set to return this weekend, Belichick probably isn’t even feeling pain at the moment.
