As Mike Vrabel fills out his staff with the Patriots, much of the attention has been focused on who will coach quarterback Drake Maye and serve as the offensive coordinator.
But Vrabel is also on the hunt to find a defensive coordinator. There also might be a favorite to get the job. “Some people around the NFL” think Lions defensive line coach/run-game coordinator Terrell Williams is Vrabel’s “ideal” pick to become the Patriots’ next defensive coordinator, ESPN’s Mike Reiss reported in his Sunday notes column.
Williams, 50, was a key figure on Vrabel’s staff when he was the Titans head coach.
