The New England Patriots wasted no time hiring a brand new head coach, lower than per week from firing Jerod Mayo after only one 12 months on the helm.
Granted, that single season was not promising, with the staff going 4-13 and lacking out on the No. 1 total choose within the draft by successful a meaningless recreation in Week 18.
Former Tennessee Titans head coach and Patriots linebacker Mike Vrabel will return to his previous stomping grounds to guide his former staff, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The information broke Sunday morning that the 49-year-old will make his return to NFL teaching after a one-year absence (he spent a while within the 2024 season as a consultant for the Cleveland Browns). He’ll inherit the No. 4 total choose within the draft from Mayo in addition to some promising younger expertise.
It appears like a full circle second for some, as Vrabel was calling the pictures on the sideline for Tennessee when Patriots legendary quarterback Tom Brady took his closing snap in Foxborough — a playoff game-sealing interception towards the Titans in 2019.
