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. The biggest Mike Vrabel hiring was made official this week.

Bill O’Brien, the former Patriots OC and current Boston College coach, had lofty praise for McDaniels during his regular appearance on WEEI this week. O’Brien shot down the criticism that McDaniels was hired because of nostalgia surrounding the glory days of Brady.
