When we last checked in on former Detroit Lions head coach Matt Patricia, he had an unspecified job back with the New England Patriots whose duties included signing player contracts as the Patriots’ representative and even taking a big part in pre-draft evaluations. Ben Volin of the Boston Globe has since done some digging into Patricia’s new role with his former team, and he suggests Patricia’s future with the organization may be headed towards a much bigger role.
Though Patricia’s official title remains undefined—he’s still not listed on the Patriots’ official website—Volin notes that his duties have expanded.
