Mike Vrabel hired by Patriots as new head coach in homecoming
NY Post
The Patriots hurried a coaching search and hired one of their former Super Bowl-winning linebackers to right the wayward franchise.
Don’t stop if you’ve heard this before. Yes, it happened last year, too.
Mike Vrabel was hired Sunday as Patriots head coach — completing a move that was widely expected across the NFL ever since the moment that Jerod Mayo was fired hours after the regular season ended.
Mayo, owner Robert Kraft’s handpicked successor to Bill Belichick and Vrabel’s former teammate in 2008, lasted one season on the sideline.
After winning three Super Bowls as a player with the Patriots, Vrabel later went 54-45 with an appearance in the AFC Championship game over six seasons as the Titans head coach. He was fired after the 2023 season.
With the Patriots, Vrabel could find the asset that he never had with the Titans: a young franchise quarterback with a first-round pedigree.
