Report: Patriots request interview with Falcons special teams coach

Jerod Mayo is reportedly leaving no stone unturned when it comes to bolstering his revamped coaching staff in New England.

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, the Patriots have requested permission to interview Falcons special teams coach Marquice Williams for New England’s special-teams coordinator position.

Williams, 38, appears to be a hot commodity this offseason. The New York Giants requested to interview Williams, but were denied by the Falcons last week.

It remains to be seen if the Patriots will get the chance to speak with Williams, as Atlanta might be waiting to appoint a new head coach before letting any of the team’s incumbent staff leave the organization.
