Bill Belichick's Girlfriend Jordon Hudson Stuns in Retro Outfit on Friday
Bill Belichick's girlfriend, Jordon Hudson, caught everyone's eye on social media Friday after sharing a striking poolside photo from her California getaway.
The 24-year-old Maine native, who placed third in the 2025 Miss Maine USA pageant, posted a picture of herself lounging under the sun while sipping a fruity drink.
Hudson wore a pink and white striped bikini top and matching bottoms, giving the photo a fun, retro '60s vibe.
'Maine girl takes on California (ironically),' she wrote in the caption.
Her toned abs were front and center, and her Instagram followers took notice.
'Love the bathing suit!!!' one admirer wrote.
Others were captivated by her physique.
'Your abs! 🔥 but also those chicken tendies look soooo good,' another said.
A fan chimed in with, 'Nice abs 🙌. What is your secret?'
'Looking beautiful as usual! 👍💕' a user argued.
'Abs goes crazy!!' praised a commenter.
'So stunning gorgeous mermaid 🔥,' described another.
The photo also included snacks like chips, guacamole and fries, creating a laid-back vacation vibe. Hudson competed for the Miss Maine USA crown in May but placed third.
In her previous post, Hudson tagged her pageant friend Melissa Sapini in the photo, who held the Miss Massachusetts USA title. The two have shared a close bond since they both competed under the Clemente Organization banner in 2024.
After Sapini passed her crown to the 2025 winner last week, Hudson recalled the pain of not winning the crown herself and how she leaned on Belichick after her loss.
Hudson and Belichick, 73, have been publicly dating since June 2024. The two reportedly met on a flight in 2021 while she was still in college.
With Hudson embracing vintage fashion and fans applauding her confidence, it's clear she knows how to make a splash, both on and offline.This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 21, 2025, where it first appeared.

Georgia Bulldogs true freshman stars could spark new trend for Kirby Smart as they lean on youth for 2025 college football season
Georgia Bulldogs true freshman stars could spark new trend for Kirby Smart as they lean on youth for 2025 college football season originally appeared on A to Z Sports. The 2025 Georgia Bulldogs are going to have to rely on several new starters on both sides of the ball and a ton of youth this season. Kirby Smart has commented on the lack of depth and difficulty in building the same classic monster rosters (for multiple off-seasons now) that were possible just a few years ago. Over the years Kirby Smart hasn't been one to force many true freshman talents onto the field unless they were absolutely ready (like Malaki Starks a few years back). Now, a handful of incoming true freshman stars could spark a new trend at Georgia, potentially forcing their way into action early. If that does happen, who will those stars-in-the-making be? Let's dive in. Advertisement Elijah Griffin, Five Star DL This is the easiest answer among all the incoming true freshman for Georgia. Elijah Griffin is near perfectly rated recruit, a top five overall player in the nation, and the number one defensive tackle in the 2025 recruiting class. Griffin has already been impressing this spring since arriving in Athens this past January. Whether its teammates, coaches, or media talking about Griffin, the reviews are always glowing. Christen Miller is locked in as one of the starting defensive tackles up front. Jordan Hall, Xzavier McLeod, and a few other veterans may get the nod over Griffin initially to start this fall. However, there's a good chance that Griffin works his way into the number three interior defensive lineman spot, if not number two alongside Christen Miller (who should be an early draft pick next spring). He's just too powerful, too technical, and too big, to leave off the field for long. View the original article to see embedded media. Talyn Taylor, Four Star WR The Georgia Bulldogs have had a difficult time developing and getting the most out of their high pedigree wide receivers for several years now, but Talyn Taylor could be the exception. Arian Smith and Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint never put it all together consistently. Dillon Bell has done alright, but he still drops too many passes and doesn't run an extensive route tree. Tyler Williams and Anthony Evans disappointed greatly from the 2023 class. Nitro Tuggle was only in Athens for one year last season, and now he's already gone. Advertisement The disappointments have been frequent at wide receiver, but Talyn Taylor truly looks different. He's been an absolute stud on the 7-on-7 circuit for years now. Then last season he finally put it all together in full 11-on-11 as a senior, racking up over 1,600 yards and 24 touchdowns in 14 games. His route running and ball skills already look like the best of any Georgia WR recruit in the last five years. It might be tough to steal a starting spot this season for him, but he could easily become the first man on behind Dillon Bell or Zachariah Branch given his versatility and athleticism. View the original article to see embedded media. CJ Wiley, Four Star WR If it isn't Talyn Taylor breaking through among the true freshman wide receivers it's likely going to be CJ Wiley. He's an absolutely ripped and ready X wide receiver from day one. At 6'4", 210 pounds with arrogant hands, Wiley projects to compete alongside Colbie Young and Noah Thomas as the go-up-and-get-it perimeter threat. Wiley doesn't have anywhere near the experience of the two seniors, but his ceiling is obviously higher than either Young or Thomas. He's more agile, faster, and seems to have better ball tracking than either of his X receiver competitors for Georgia. Don't be surprised if he's earning significant looks midseason and cashing in with every opportunity. Advertisement View the original article to see embedded media. Isaiah Gibson, Five Star EDGE Isaiah Gibson was one of the most highly coveted defensive recruits in the nation for several years prior to his finalized five star status for several reasons. For starters, he's a physical force at 6'4", nearly 260 pounds already who plays with strength, aggression, and finishes hard on every single snap. But one of the best reasons that so many teams wanted him is that he's an absolute dawg on the field. He's a vocal leader, a trash talker, and one who can actually back it up with his play. Georgia fans and his teammates are going to immediately gravitate towards him, loving everything he does for the Bulldogs. That kind of personality and talent mix almost always finds its way onto the field early. And frankly, after losing seven of their top eight pass rushers from a season ago (over 1,700 pass rush snaps gone), Georgia may not have any choice but to get him on the field early and often this year.

Follow me (@FF_TravisM) and A to Z Sports (@AtoZSportsNFL) on X for all the latest football news!

How Amtrak used '90s monster truck commercials to make its top Instagram post of all time
Are you flying this summer? If so, Amtrak has a message for you: Don't be ridiculous. That's the opening manifesto of the company's new ' Summer train-tacular ' spoof ad, which is currently raking in hundreds of thousands of views across Amtrak's social media platforms. The video hypes up Amtrak's California Zephyr (Chicago to San Francisco), Coast Starlight (Seattle to Los Angeles), and City of New Orleans (Chicago to, you guessed it, New Orleans) train lines and takes a few pointed shots at air travel—all in the style of the comically macho, over-the-top Monster Jam monster truck ads of the '90s. 'Little bags of pretzels? No way! Tiny windows? I don't think so! Middle seats? Get outta here! Take the train instead,' the narrator shouts, adding, 'Over 18 inches of seat—but you'll only need the edge!!!' So far, the Monster Jam parody has garnered 418,000 views on Instagram and nearly 7,000 comments, making it Amtrak's top engaged Instagram post of all time. Across all Meta platforms (Instagram, Facebook, and Threads), the post has notched nearly half a million shares. These are huge numbers for Amtrak, which, according to senior social media specialist Naleen Camara, tends to net around 100 comments on the average social post. Jessica Davidson, vice president of digital and brand management at Amtrak, says train-tacular is just one example of how Amtrak is currently shifting its social media strategy as it enters 'a new era of rail.' Amtrak is currently in the process of building new high-speed rail lines, upgrading its train car design, and renovating its stations—all in an effort to double its 2024 record of 32.8 million annual riders by 2040. Now, Amtrak is betting that one way to meet that goal is convincing digitally native users to choose train travel over flight, one silly video at a time. Amtrak ups its social media game To some, a Monster Jam spoof might seem like an out-of-character move for a relatively staid legacy brand like Amtrak. But a similar blend of unhinged, chaotic, and irreverent humor has helped brands across a spectrum of industries—like Duolingo, Pop Tarts, Nutter Butter, and Pine Sol —stand out on social media amidst an endless sea of other brands. Camara says Amtrak has been slowly infusing some of these tactics into its social content over the course of several years, looking to see what sticks. As a Gen Zer herself, she's particularly aware of how much marketing content young users are exposed to on a daily basis, and how difficult it can be to break through to them. 'It takes a lot to stop the scroll for a digital native when they become so expectant of [polished, done-up] content from a brand,' Camara says. 'We're really starting to pick up on that, and leaning into what is going to stop you, what is going to make you lock eyes with me. That's resulted in these more unconventional posts.' This experimental approach has resulted in several social media wins for Amtrak. In 2022, the company raked in 152,000 likes on X for simply tweeting the word 'trains,' resulting in a flurry of other companies like McDonald's, NPR, and NASA copying the one-word format. This January, Amtrak scored a hit TikTok with a video of two hot dogs (one of the train service's popular menu items) moodily gazing out an Amtrak window with the caption, 'us in another universe.' The video currently has 1.2 million views and over 134,000 likes. An, more recently, Amtrak has been leaning into a new tack to set itself apart: taking a few lighthearted jabs at the airline industry. In March, Southwest Airlines' loss became Amtrak's win when, after the air carrier announced the end of its bag fly free policy, Amtrak received 53,000 likes on the tweet, 'guess we're the only ones doing free baggage now.' The sassy comment hints at a broader marketing effort on Amtrak's part called Retrain Travel, which aims to attract new riders by emphasizing the amenities and experience factor of rail travel over other potential options. With 'train-tacular,' Amtrak appears to have perfected that formula. How Amtrak sparks joy As Amtrak's social media team was brainstorming ideas for summer content, Camara says, they needed a format that could highlight the superiority of train travel while appealing to Gen Alpha, Gen Z, and Millennials at the same time. The challenge, then, was 'trying to invoke excitement between these groups that, on the surface, seemingly don't have much in common.' 'In this instance, the-tie in truly was nostalgia and trying to touch that distant memory of an experience that you wish that you were a part of,' Camara says. 'We drew inspiration from retro monster truck commercials, because they were really able to cut through the noise.' As 'train-tacular' took off, Camara adds, the team even noticed a tone shift in the brand's comments. The video seems to have unlocked a sense of unbridled enthusiasm for Amtrak among younger commenters. 'BE THEERRRRREEEEE,' one user wrote. 'OH IM PUMPED UP BABY,' another wrote. The response is a positive sign for the company's efforts to entice young riders: 'The sooner people can experience Amtrak, the better as a great way to travel,' Davidson says. 'We absolutely want to absolutely appeal to the next generation of travelers.' Still, Camara says, Amtrak isn't about to go off the rails into full chaos-mode anytime soon. 'In general, when it comes to having these viral moments, it is amazing, and you truly are on this high, but at the end of the day, you can't lose sight of what works and what messaging is core to you and your brand,' Camara says. 'If every single post is Monster Truck, then nothing is Monster Truck.'

Chase Claypool says he's stronger and faster than ever after missing last season
Almost a year ago, wide receiver Chase Claypool suffered a toe injury in Bills training camp that was initially described as day-to-day but ended up being so serious that it cost him the entire season. Now Claypool is unsigned, but says he's ready to have the best year of his career. Claypool wrote on social media that he needed extensive medical treatment and rehab but is now capable of doing everything he's ever done on the football field. Advertisement "I tore a ligament and a tendon in my second toe and have been rehabbing, working out, and recovering every day for the past year," Claypool wrote. "I am back to being the strongest and fastest I've ever been and couldn't be more excited to step back out on the field and let my actions speak for themselves. I deeply and truly believe that the pieces will align, and I will work my way into the position to show off what's been suppressed these last two years." The 27-year-old Claypool has talent, which is why the Steelers drafted him in the second round in 2020 and why the Bears traded a second-round pick to acquire him in 2022. But after a promising first couple of seasons in Pittsburgh, his production plummeted. In 2023 he caught just eight passes while playing for two teams, the Bears and Dolphins, and then didn't play at all in 2024. Claypool has fallen a long way from when he was one of the NFL's best rookie receivers five years ago, but he has shown enough in his NFL career that some team will likely give him a chance to show in training camp that he really is stronger and faster than ever.
