The New England Patriots officially have their coaching staff for the 2024 season.
Since the organization decided to part ways with Bill Belichick and hire Jerod Mayo as the new head coach, everyone knew that there was going to be a lot of turnover.
And that's exactly what the Patriots have done, hiring 17 new faces to help lead the team.
Here are the new Patriots coaches:
- Head Coach: Jerod Mayo
- Offensive Coordinator: Alex Van Pelt
- Defensive Coordinator: DeMarcus Covington
- Special Teams Coordinator: Jeremy Springer
- Offensive Line: Scott Peters
- Quarterbacks: TC McCartney
- Wide Receivers: Tyler Hughes
- Running Backs: Taylor Embree
- Tight Ends: Bob Bicknell
- Senior Assistant: Ben McAdoo
- Assistant Wide Receivers: Tiquan Underwood
- Assistant Offensive Line: Robert Kugler
- Offensive Assistant: Michael McCarthy
- Cornerbacks: Mike Pellegrino
- Safeties: Brian Belichick
- Inside Linebackers: Dont'a Hightower
- Outside Linebackers: Drew Wilkins
- Defensive Line: Jerry Montgomery
- Defensive Assistant: Vinny DePalma
- Defensive Assistant: Jamael Lett
- Special Teams assistant: Tom Quinn
- Assistant Special Teams: Coby Tippett
Brian Belichick, Mike Pellegrino, and Troy Brown are expected to return, according to The Boston Herald's Doug Kyed.
Belichick coached safeties last season, while Mike Pellegrino was in charge of cornerbacks. The two will remain in that same position, but Brown is a different story.
Brown was the wide receivers coach, but that position has already been filled by Tyler Hughes, with Tiquan Underwood serving as the assistant wide receivers coach. So at this time it's unknown what his role will be on the offense.
MassLive's Mark Daniels further adds that Evan Rothstein and Joe Kim are also returning.
