The coach of the new england patriots inside linebackers reacted angrily to recent allegations of conflict between him and pats staff.
Jerod Mayo, the head of the new england patriots inside linebackers team, has never shied away from expressing his thoughts, ideas, or sentiments on any given topic, especially when it comes to football.
However, the 37-year-old pats’ assistant was open in reaction to a recent boston sports journal article claiming that he has “rubbed at least some people” within the organization the wrong,” and that Mayo wanted to set the record straight when speaking with reporters on tuesday morning.
“well, i try to stay away from reading a lot of the articles and stuff throughout the year,” mayo said. “but when that report came out, my brother sent it to me… it was more hurtful than anything.” “i find the timing to be a little bit odd,” mayo said. despite the team’s dismal 4-12 record, mayo seemed genuinely distraught by shifting the focus away from a pats defense that has played at a remarkable high level. New england will be no. 1 in week 18 as a result of the new england athletic association’s success. In the nfl, 6 players are ranked highest in total defense, allowing a 304.6 defensive yards average as well as 19.2 yards per game.
Mayo has been one of the leading designers of new england’s recent defense revival, for the most part. He has been one of the best defensive assistant coaches for the patriots in the last five seasons.
He has been integrally involved in the defensive play calling scheme alongside outside linebackers coach stephen Belichick, effectively carrying out the duties of an unofficial co-defensive coordinator. His ability to communicate and mentor has earned him acclaim among his peers and teammates alike.
