Even though he will not be an NFL head coach in 2022, Jerod Mayo is one of the hottest young names on the market. The fact that he participated in three interviews over the last two years despite a comparative lack of coaching experience is proof of that.
Mayo, who is coming off his third season as the New England Patriots’ inside linebackers coach, spoke with the Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders earlier this year. He did not get either job — the same happened when he interviewed in Philadelphia in 2020 — but the experience as a whole still has been a valuable one as he said on Wednesday morning.
