The 2025 NFL offseason is underway for the New England Patriots, and they have been quite busy in the early going. After struggling to the tune of a 4-13 record in 2024, the Patriots promptly fired first-year head coach Jerod Mayo, replacing him with another former player of theirs, Mike Vrabel. The key difference is that Vrabel has head coaching experience, whereas Mayo did not.
Vrabel has spent the past couple of weeks revamping his coaching staff, bringing in old friend Josh McDaniels for his third stint as the Patriots offensive coordinator, and former Detroit Lions defensive line coach Terrell Williams to be their defensive coordinator.
