After hiring Mike Vrabel as their head coach and Josh McDaniels as their offensive coordinator, the New England Patriots are looking to fill out the rest of their offensive coaching staff.

According to ESPN's Pete Thamel, the Patriots are hiring Ohio State Riley Larkin as an offensive assistant.

Larkin played quarterback collegiately at John Caroll, McDaniels' alma mater, where he was a national semifinalist in 2016.

He spent three seasons as a high school quarterbacks coach (two at McLean High School in Virginia and one at Ravenwood High School in Tennessee).
