Potential Patriots Offensive Coordinator Takes Promotion With Bengals

A day after reportedly having an offensive coordinator interview with the New England Patriots, Dan Pitcher got a new job.

It just didn’t come with the Patriots.

Pitcher, who spent the previous four seasons as the Bengals’ quarterbacks coach, received a promotion from Cincinnati on Wednesday with the franchise naming him as the team’s new offensive coordinator, according to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport. Pitcher takes over for Brian Callahan, who left the Bengals to become the head coach of the Tennessee Titans.

Pitcher was a sought-after candidate for offensive coordinator positions early in the offseason.
