Bill Belichick<\/strong><\/a>‘s second offseason with North Carolina<\/strong> is shaping up to be far quieter than his chaotic first year in Chapel Hill – but the 73-year-old coach<\/strong> is still dealing with unwanted distractions.<\/p>\n

The Tar Heels<\/strong> finished last season with a disappointing 4-8 record<\/strong> (2-6 in the ACC<\/strong>), falling short of the high expectations that came with hiring the NFL legend<\/strong> at the same program where his father once coached.<\/p>\n

After a promising 2-1 start, UNC football<\/strong> struggled against Power Four opponents<\/strong> and failed to beat any in-state rivals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Bill Belichick sued over worker’s injuries<\/h2>\n

According to the Daily Mail<\/strong>, a painter has filed a $300,000 lawsuit<\/strong> against the six-time Super Bowl champion<\/strong> after suffering serious injuries while working at Belichick’s $5 million Nantucket home<\/strong> in Massachusetts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The worker alleges he fell and severely injured his ankle due to “dangerous and unsafe working conditions”<\/strong>. The lawsuit claims Belichick failed in his duty to maintain a safe work environment<\/strong>, inspect for hazards, and warn workers of known risks.<\/p>\n

The plaintiff is seeking compensation for $61,000 in hospital bills<\/strong>, $4,600 in medical visits<\/strong>, $2,000 in physical therapy<\/strong>, nearly $168,000 in lost wages<\/strong>, and up to $50,000 in lost earning capacity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
