No, it's not from deflated footballs, or spying on another team's practice.

But, New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick is sporting a nice shiner.

Speaking to reporters, Belichick was sporting his classic Patriots sweatshirt look, but accompanying it was a black and blue left eye.

"I think I'll live," Belichick said via The Boston Globe when asked about it.

The Patriots are getting face to host the Kansas City Chiefs at Foxboro on Saturday in a divisional-round playoff game.

"I dont think we need to list the coaches on the injury report," he joked.

So, perhaps he slipped on a banana peel?
