The Patriots are reportedly bringing back a familiar face from Bill Belichick’s early days as head coach in New England.
Adrian Klemm, Belichick’s first draft pick with the Patriots in 2000, is set to return as a member of the coaching staff, according to ESPN senior college football writer Pete Thamel.
Klemm, 45, was the associate head coach and run game coordinator for the University of Oregon during the 2022 season. He will likely fill an “offensive line-based role” with the Patriots, according to ESPN Patriots reporter Mike Reiss.
