The New England Patriots have found their next offensive coordinator, and it’s their old one. Josh McDaniels, who already held the position twice before, will return to fill the vacant spot on new head coach Mike Vrabel’s staff.
McDaniels originally joined the Patriots as a personnel assistant in 2001 and five years later was named offensive coordinator a first time. While he briefly left for unsuccessful stints as Denver Broncos head coach and St. Louis Rams OC, he returned to New England in 2012 and together with quarterback Tom Brady led the offense to its three most recent Super Bowl wins.
