Bill Belichick worried fans on Saturday night after a clip emerged of the 72-year-old football coach struggling to walk straight without the help of his girlfriend.
Belichick and his girlfriend Jordon Hudson, 24, were spotted heading to the UNC-Duke men’s basketball game on the University of North Carolina campus.
But a video shared by the Carolina Cockroach TikTok account showed the Tar Heels football coach at times swaying from side to side as Hudson held his hand and walked in front of him.
In the clip, which has since surfaced on X, Belichick can be seen lumbering towards the Dean Smith Center as Hudson holds onto him tightly.
Fans reacted with concern as they questioned the health of the legendary coach.
‘Is he ok ?,’ one asked.

Jordon Hudson, 24 and Bill Belichick, 72, have reportedly discussed marriage
‘It’s like a granddaughter helping her grandfather,’ another added.
‘Needs to retire,’ a third said.
Another called the clip ‘sad’, while a different social media user had a question about Belichick’s dynamic with Hudson.
‘Why is she dragging him like that?!,’ they wrote.
It’s not the first time that Belichick has been caught in a potentially compromising position on the UNC campus, as he appeared to fall asleep while next to Hudson at a basketball game last month.
While the couple is said to have been dating for three years, their relationship wasn’t made public until last June, and more details have recently emerged regarding their relationship.
Alongside Belichick, Ben Affleck, Jeremy Strong and more, Hudson made a surprise appearance in a Super Bowl ad for Dunkin’.
Afterwards, it was reported by Pablo Torre that Hudson had actually been working as Belichick’s ‘de facto agent’ and used her apparent power to get herself inserted in the ad
‘The person that you need to go through to book Bill Belichick for a Super Bowl commercial, or for the other commitments he has as a multi-platform personality. She’s the gateway,’ Pablo Torre said on his self-titled podcast .

Torre added, ‘What I’ve been told, reliably, is that Jordon happened to then use that power to be in the commercial as well.’
Furthermore, Hudson has sparked engagement rumors regarding the pair after she was captured with a huge ring on her left ring finger by DailyMail.com during Super Bowl week.
After that, an anonymous source told Page Six that the pair ‘have definitely discussed marriage.’
The source went on to say that the pair getting married ‘isn’t out of the question,’ before revealing one stipulation a potential marriage between them would have.
‘They would definitely get a prenup,’ the source said.
The insider added that ‘Jordon hasn’t put any pressure on Bill at all to propose, and she feels like it will happen when and if the time is right.’
That report came after the couple spent a very public Super Bowl week together in New Orleans, as they were seen at a charity event ahead of the game.
They also attended the NFL Honors ceremony that same night – with the couple’s age gap made fun of onstage by Snoop Dogg.
Hudson and Belichick were then spotted at popular New Orleans bar Pat O’Briens after departing the Honors.
Belichick has been settling into his new job as the head coach of UNC, with whom he officially inked a five-year $50million deal in January.
Belichick landed the job roughly after his split from the Patriots after 24 seasons.
This week, he got down to work at Chapel Hill as he led North Carolina in their spring practices.
Their season will begin on September with a matchup against TCU.
