Patriots 2025 coaching staff tracker: News, rumors, and more originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston

It didn’t take long for the New England Patriots to make their first major move of the offseason.

Shortly after Sunday’s season finale vs. the Buffalo Bills, Patriots owner Robert Kraft announced the team parted ways with first-year head coach Jerod Mayo. Mayo finished his debut season with just four wins — including a victory over the Bills that cost New England the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.

With Mayo’s departure, we can expect plenty more changes to the coaching staff in the coming weeks. Whoever the Patriots hire as their next head coach will likely bring in their own assistants as the organization looks to start fresh in 2025.
