Mike Vrabel’s search for his offensive coordinator in his first season as Patriots head coach appears to be well underway.
The Patriots have requested permission from the Chargers to interview pass game coordinator Marcus Brady for their offensive coordinator position, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported Friday.
Brady is the second known candidate to have either been interviewed or been requested to interview for the Patriots’ offensive coordinator role. Bears interim head coach and offensive coordinator Thomas Brown met with the team to interview for the position Tuesday, NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport previously reported.
Brady, 45, has risen up the NFL coaching ranks after spending time in the CFL as a player and an assistant coach.
