Josh McDaniels Returns for Third Stint as Patriots' Offensive Coordinator Under Mike Vrabel to Mentor Drake Maye
Jan 21, 2025, 10:32 PM
The New England Patriots are set to hire Josh McDaniels as their offensive coordinator, marking his third stint with the team. McDaniels, who previously served in the role from 2006-2008 and 2012-2021, will work under new head coach Mike Vrabel to develop quarterback Drake Maye. The 48-year-old coach, who has a history with the Patriots including six Super Bowl wins, is expected to bring his experience and success with young quarterbacks to the team. The Patriots interviewed several candidates for the position, including Vikings assistant Grant Udinski, former Bears interim coach Thomas Brown, and Chargers passing game coordinator Marcus Brady, but ultimately chose McDaniels. His return is seen as a move to improve the Patriots' offense, which struggled in recent seasons.
