The New England Patriots' coaching staff is expected to see significant turnover after the Super Bowl. Defensive coordinator Matt Patricia is all but certain to leave the team to become the next head coach of the Detroit Lions, while both offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels and special teams coordinator Joe Judge are also candidates to leave the team for free jobs elsewhere.
Also on the list of potential losses is linebackers coach Brian Flores. The 36-year old, who has been with the Patriots his entire coaching career and worked his way up from coaching assistant to his current role, was in the running for the Arizona Cardinals' vacant head coaching job – “was” because if a report by AZ Central's Kent Somers is to be believed, it appears that he no longer is.
