New England Patriots captain Devin McCourty is among those excited by the return of Bill O’Brien as offensive coordinator.
McCourty and O’Brien have history together, as the latter was a Patriots assistant from 2007-2011. He also spent time at Alabama and was able to work a bit with Mac Jones in 2021, when Jones sought assistance in learning the Patriots’ playbook. Now, they will have the opportunity to work together in what is a crucial year for the offense as a unit.
McCourty sees O’Brien’s return as a positive for Jones in Year 3, as transcribed by Zack Cox of NESN.
