The New England Patriots are targeting Detroit Lions defensive line coach Terrell Williams to be their next defensive coordinator, according to CBS Sports and 247 Sports' Matt Zenitz.
Williams began his coaching career in 1998 and has served multiple positions at both the collegiate and NFL levels. He worked under Mike Vrabel when he served as the defensive line coach and assistant head coach for the Tennessee Titans.
He has since put himself in a position for a promotion after his first year as the defensive line coach for the Lions in 2024.
