Patriots’ Jarrett Stidham has himself a fan in Kliff Kingsbury

One NFL coach has been on the Jarrett Stidham bandwagon long before he was primed to succeed Tom Brady as the starting quarterback of the New England Patriots.

While speaking on WEEI’s “Ordway, Merloni & Fauria” Tuesday, Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury detailed his experience recruiting Stidham to Texas Tech, where Kingsbury served as head coach from 2013 to 2018.
