Former Patriots tight ends coach Bob Bicknell joins Raiders as senior assistant

Bob Bicknell, who coached the New England Patriots’ tight end group in 2024, has found a new home. As was announced by the Las Vegas Raiders on Tuesday, Bicknell has joined their coaching staff as a senior offensive assistant.

Bicknell, 55, joined the Patriots last offseason. The move reunited him with offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt after the two had been part of the Cincinnati Bengals’ staff in 2018 and 2019.

In New England, Bicknell coached a position group headlined by veterans Hunter Henry and Austin Hooper. The pair finished the season ranked first and third on the team with 66 and 45 receptions, respectively.
