Bill Belichick's Instagram Debut: A Goat-Filled Welcome from Girlfriend Jordon Hudson

Legendary NFL coach Bill Belichick has officially joined Instagram, and he's already receiving a warm welcome from girlfriend Jordon Hudson.

Legendary NFL coach Bill Belichick has finally made his debut on Instagram, joining the social media platform under the handle @BillBelichick. The announcement came during his appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show," where he received a round of applause from the group.

Belichick's first Instagram story was a repost from Hudson, the 23-year-old who shared a photo of the six-time Super Bowl champion head coach petting a goat at the United States Naval Academy.

"I will leave the ‘Billy-Goat-ing’ to @bill.t.goat at the @usnavalacademy," Belichick wrote on his story. "Thanks for the warm reception, J!"

While they have been photographed together, Belichick hasn't publicly acknowledged his relationship with Hudson, making this another first in the 72-year-old’s life.

Hudson captioned the photo with, "This is my formal petition for @BillBelichick to change his handle to @ BillyGoat !!" with a goat emoji.

"Welcome to the ‘Gram, Billy!!!!" she added.

Belichick's first post on his new page was a video statement about why he is joining the social media platform.

"Over the past few months, and not being with a team, I haven’t had the opportunity to express my thoughts at a moment’s notice," said Belichick, who didn’t land another head coaching gig after parting ways with the New England Patriots after more than two decades with the organization.

"So, now, I’m changing that. I tried to join ‘SnapFace,’ but I couldn’t find it. I decided this was a good place to land, so I can talk to you and show you what I’m up to."

Since Belichick has jumped into the sports media realm after not finding his next coaching job, joining social media makes sense for him.

He may be getting some help from Hudson, who is reportedly dating Belichick, but he is certainly off to a hot start with his Instagram debut.

Hudson is doing her part to make Belichick feel welcome on the platform. She has been posting photos of him, including one of him petting a goat, and has even started a petition to change his username to @BillyGoat.

With Hudson's support, Belichick is sure to continue to find success on Instagram.
