Josh McDaniels coached Tom Brady, Cam Newton and Mac Jones as the New England Patriots offensive coordinator. Now, he’ll return to the sidelines in Foxborough to coach Drake Maye.

Mike Vrabel said he's excited to work with his new offensive and defensive coordinators, in his first interview since hiring Josh McDaniels and Terrell Williams.

McDaniels agreed Tuesday night to become the Patriots’ offensive coordinator again, a source confirmed to the Globe. It’s the same role McDaniels had from 2006-08 and 2012-21, when he was essentially the “head coach” of the offense for Bill Belichick and was a crucial piece of the dynasty.
