According to cbs’ jonathan jones, the new england patriots have recruited thomas brown for the offensive coordinator position, opening up the position to a new candidate.
Brown, who spent three seasons with the rams before transitioning to coach running backs, is another candidate who was trained under sean mcvay.
He also served as assistant head coach in 2021-2022. then, with no. 202, he took over as assistant head coach. Bryce young, the no. 1 overall pick for the carolina panthers, was the offensive coordinator for the first time last season. The panthers offense struggled and fell behind new england in terms of scoring averages of 13.9 points per game.
Brown only had play-calling duties for three weeks in the middle of the season, and that was only after head coach frank reich was fired later in the year. In addition to his interview with new england, brown spoke with the steelers about their offensive coordinator position, and he spoke with the titans in person on monday.
Before hiring brown, the bears expressed an interest in him, as well as rams assistants nick caley and zac robinson, as well as texans quarterback coach jerrod johnson. brown is the fourth known candidate to be considered for interviews on new england’s roster.
