The New England Patriots have announced Mike Vrabel as their new head coach following the firing of Jerod Mayo after a disappointing 4-13 season. Vrabel is expected to overhaul the coaching staff, conducting interviews for various positions throughout January. The team aims to find new offensive and defensive coordinators, as well as positional coaches, to revamp their strategy and performance.

In an interview, Vrabel emphasized the importance of finding the right candidates who can contribute positively to the team. This shift comes at a crucial time as the Patriots look to rebound from a challenging campaign and regain competitiveness in the league.
