Mike Vrabel has added an up-and-coming college coordinator to his new Patriots staff.
The Patriots wasted no time in hiring Mike Vrabel as their new head coach, and he’s already building the staff that he hopes will help him pull New England out of the dredges in 2025. According to Mark Daniels of MassLive.com, the Patriots are hiring former NFL head coach and offensive coordinator Doug Marrone.
On Monday, Vrabel made a number of key hires to add some experience and pedigree to his coaching staff. Former Buffalo Bills and Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone is joining Vrabel's staff, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz.
