Alabama offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien has been floated around as a potential candidate for the New England Patriots offensive coordinator position. However, reports indicate O’ Brien may not want to take on the job.
O’Brien has familiarity with New England, having served most recently as the team’s offensive coordinator in 2011. There’s hope he’d be open to returning with the Patriots looking to move on from Matt Patricia as the offensive play-caller.
However, Boston Sports Journal’s Greg Bedard put cold water on those rumors by noting O’Brien may have reservations about returning to New England.
