New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick has never been known for being talkative, receptive, or even close or caring.
He’s a pragmatical guy, a boss who has treated most of his players — including Tom Brady — as disposable assets, and that has rubbed plenty of people — again, including Brady — the wrong way throughout the course of his career.
That happened again on Sunday during his team’s loss to the Las Vegas Raiders.
Raiders DT Adam Butler, who began his career with the Patriots and played under Belichick for four years, was angry about the fact that his former coach snubbed him and didn’t even talk to him after the game (via Logan Reever).

Butler stated that he felt disrespected as Belichick didn’t even acknowledge him, but that’s far from a surprise.
Belichick barely interacted with lifelong assistant Josh McDaniels, and he also pretty much ignored former WR Jakobi Meyers.
Truth be told, Belichick’s personality and demeanor have been a subject of discussion for decades now.
And it seems like you can get away with a couple of things when you’re winning, but it just comes off as rude when you’re losing.
The Patriots have now dropped three straight games, including two of the ugliest losses in the Belichick era.
And while most of the other team’s fans despise the Patriots due to the fact that they were the ruling force in the league for the better part of two decades, plenty of them are also happy for their downfall because of Belichick’s ways.
