The New England Patriots have new responsibilities in mind for senior football advisor Matt Patricia and newly-hired offensive assistant Joe Judge, according to MMQB’s Albert Breer. Judge will work with the quarterbacks and Patricia will spend time with the offensive line.
The new roles seem to be Bill Belichick’s solution for a mass exodus of offensive talent after former offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels took the Raiders head coaching job and brought three assistants with him. With those four offensive coaches leaving and running backs coach Ivan Fears expected to retire, the Patriots have a significant reorganization to do.
