It appears DeMarcus Covington will be staying with the New England Patriots in 2023.
Covington, 33, had received interest from the Arizona Cardinals last week. The team of new head coach Jonathan Gannon requested an interview with the Patriots’ defensive line coach last week, trying to fill its vacant defensive coordinator spot.
However, as first reported by NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the job eventually went to Gannon’s former colleague at the Philadelphia Eagles, Nick Rallis. As a consequence, there are no pending interview requests or other reported interest to try to lure Covington from New England.
