Greg Schiano Announces He Is Stepping Down as Patriots' Defensive Coordinator
New England Patriots defensive coordinator Greg Schiano is stepping down from his role with the team, he said in a statement on Thursday.
"I have informed Mr. Kraft and Coach Belichick that I am stepping down from my position at the Patriots," Schiano said. "This is not the result of any one event, but rather a realization that I need to spend more time on my faith and family. I don’t want to look back years from now and wish I had done things differently. Therefore, I am taking time away from the game to recalibrate my priorities."
