New England Patriots coach Jerod Mayo is not buying into the report leading up to the NFL draft that Jonathan Kraft was “heavily involved” in the team’s decision-making.
That led to a general consensus amongst fans that Jonathan and his father, owner Robert Kraft, would be making many football decisions, including who New England would choose in the draft.
The organization ended up selecting North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye with the third overall pick.
When meeting with reporters, Mayo pushed back on the idea that ownership would have control over personnel decisions.
