Speaking to WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show” a day after the Patriots defeated the Titans 31-13, Mike Vrabel credited his players for pushing through the circumstances as the former Tennessee coach made a triumphant return to his old stomping grounds.
“There was a lot to that week, and I think our guys handled it really well,” Vrabel said. He coached Tennessee from 2018-2023, but was fired in Jan. 2024.
New England trailed 10-3 in the first quarter, but eventually took the game over with a combined 28 points in the second and third quarters.
