The NFL's coaching carousel has stopped without Bill Belichick landing a head coaching job, surprising many, including Tom Brady, his former star quarterback.

"I don't know the criteria for hiring coaches. I've never been a part of it." Brady said this week on his "Let's Go!" podcast. "I mean, I'm surprised that the greatest coach ever doesn't have a job, absolutely. But I'm surprised [by] a lot of things in the NFL."

Belichick, who mutually parted ways with the New England Patriots after 24 seasons and six Super Bowl titles, had only two interviews during this year's cycle -- both with the Atlanta Falcons, who decided to hire Raheem Morris for the job instead.
