Those Patriots teams had Tom Brady leading the charge, but Vrabel and McDaniels will now revolve this team around Drake Maye, who just wrapped up a promising first season in New E

Drake Maye is more than familiar with his new offensive coordinator. When the quarterback came to New England last year, he dove into his new playbook but also watched game film from past Patriots seasons. As it turns out, those film sessions will come in handy this season when Maye is coached by Josh McDaniels for the first time.

Speaking to Tom E. Curran, Julian Edelman mapped out why Josh McDaniels is a good fit for Drake Maye in New England.

On the latest "Eye on Foxborough," Matt Cassel details how Josh McDaniels tailored the offense around his strengths when Tom Brady went down in 2008, and how the Patriots OC will help Drake Maye.

I think the biggest thing is he’s been a head coach, and he knows what it’s like. So (I’m) excited to get up to New England and get things going.”

The New England Patriots reportedly interviewed former Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy before deciding on Josh McDaniels to take over the offensive play-calling, according to FOX Sports’ Jordan Schultz.

Patriots coach Mike Vrabel explains his decision to bring Josh McDaniels back as New England's offensive coordinator.

The Patriots are bringing back Josh McDaniels for his third go-around as the offensive coordinator, according to multiple reports on Tuesday. McDaniels held the same role from 2006-2008 after working his way up from a personnel assistant and then again from 2012 to 2022.

New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel is clearly a fan of the way Josh McDaniels sees the game. It’s for that reason that he hired him to return for a third stint as offensive coordinator for the Patriots.
