The New England Patriots followed up their reunion with Josh McDaniels and filled the defensive coordinator position on Wednesday.
New England welcomed Terrell Williams aboard to join head coach Mike Vrabel’s staff and fill the team’s third primary vacancy this offseason. Williams, now the former defensive coordinator of the Detroit Lions, was identified as a favorite to land in Foxborough and reunite with Vrabel — Williams spent six seasons on Vrabel’s staff with the Tennessee Titans, initially as the defensive line coach.
When asked how Williams prefers the playstyle of those in his locker room, the 50-year-old dropped a bold one-word description while still in Detroit.
