Two offensive coordinator candidates now off the board for the Patriots

As the New England Patriots offensive coordinator search continues, two names can now be officially removed from the list.

According to NFL Network, Texans’ QB coach Jerrod Johnson will remain in Houston while ex-Panthers offensive coordinator Thomas Brown will be joining the Chicago Bears as the team’s pass game coordinator.

The 35-year Johnson became a hot commodity in the coaching ranks after his work with Texans rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud in 2023. However, a contract extension and raise for both Johnson and current offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik was enough to keep the duo in Houston.
