Last year, Bill Belichick and the Patriots agreed to part ways after 24 years, and his eldest son, Stephen, left to become the defensive coordinator at the University of Washington. Now, Belichick's youngest son, Brian, is out after nine seasons with New England, according to ESPN's Mike Reiss.

Brian Belichick, the son of legendary ex-Patriots coach Bill Belichick, is departing the team after serving as the safeties coach for the past five years, multiple reports said Tuesday, as new head coach Mike Vrabel builds his staff.

Mike Vrabel joined the Patriots as head coach in a throwback to the Bill Belichick era. But his tenure won't involve Belichick's son, Brian.
