Amid uncertainty over his future as Patriots head coach, Bill Belichick said Monday morning that he’s still “heavily invested” in the organization.

Belichick met with the media via video conference call on Monday morning and offered in his opening statement that he’s “under contract” with the Patriots and plans to do what he always does.

“Every day I come in, work as hard as I can to help the team in whatever way I can. That’s what I’m going to continue to do. Today was kind of the wrap-up day with the players. We’ll have a meeting with them and then go from there. As far as any decisions or direction or anything like that for next year, it’s way too early for that.”

Belichick said he will meet with owner Robert Kraft but did not disclose when that meeting would be. He said it could even be a series of meetings.

The longtime head coach was asked if he would be willing to relinquish personnel control to stay on as head coach.

“Look, I’m for whatever collectively we decide as an organization is the best thing to help our football team. And I have multiple roles in that. And I rely on a lot of people to help me in those responsibilities. Someone has to have the final say. I rely on a lot of other people to help. Whatever that process is, I’m only part of it.”

Belichick would not answer whether he would be open to coaching another team, saying that he wasn’t going to get into “hypothetical situations.” He did answer when asked if it would surprise him if Kraft decided to moving in a different direction at head coach would surprise him.

“I’m going to focus on what I can control and focus on, and that’s my work ethic and my effort to do what I can to help the Patriots organization, which I’m heavily invested in,” Belichick said.
