Another day, another coaching departure for the Los Angeles Rams. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the New England Patriots are hiring Jeremy Springer as their new special teams coach.
Springer was the Rams’ assistant special teams coach for the last two seasons, but he’ll now head across the country to be the Patriots’ special teams coordinator under new head coach Jerod Mayo.
Springer previously spent eight years coaching at the collegiate level, making stops at UTEP, Texas A&M, Arizona and Marshall.
The Rams still have special teams coordinator Chase Blackburn on their staff and don’t plan to part ways with him, but he’ll need to find a new assistant to replace Springer on the staff.
