Ex-Patriots executive Michael Lombardi reacts to son’s ‘hometown’ opportunity as Raiders offensive coordinator

After spending the past three seasons with the New England Patriots, Mick Lombardi has been hired as the next offensive coordinator of the Las Vegas Raiders, as reported Saturday by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

It’s a move his father described as “full circle” on VSiN’s “Lombardi Line.”

“We’re really excited that he’s got a great opportunity to go back to really his hometown team,” former Patriots assistant to the coaching staff Michael Lombardi said Sunday.

The elder Lombardi began his football career as UNLV’s recruiting coordinator from 1981 through 1984.
