Josh McDaniels recently sparked speculation among Patriots fans with a comment that seemed to imply he had a hand in Mike Vrabel’s hiring as the team’s head coach. McDaniels mentioned that he picked Vrabel up from the airport, leading some to believe he was involved in Vrabel’s recruitment
However, it was later clarified that McDaniels was actually referring to when Vrabel joined the Patriots as a player back in 2001.
In other news, McDaniels has been hired as the Patriots’ new offensive coordinator, and fans are excited to see how he’ll work with quarterback Drake Maye. McDaniels has a reputation for being great at developing quarterbacks, and many believe he’s the perfect fit for the Patriots.
As for his contract, it’s likely that the Patriots will pay McDaniels a salary commensurate with his experience and qualifications, which could be around $3-5 million per year. However, the Raiders are still obligated to pay McDaniels as part of his previous contract, so the Patriots may not have to pay him the full amount.
