New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick is not about to spark any rumors in regard to potential offensive coordinator candidates.
The Patriots have struggled on offense, even with a strong performance against the Minnesota Vikings last Thursday. Bill O’Brien’s name has floated around as a potential replacement for Matt Patricia considering his work as an assistant for the Patriots from 2007-2011.
He has most recently worked for the Alabama Crimson Tide, serving as their offensive coordinator since the 2021 season, after being fired as head coach of the Houston Texans. During his time in New England, he served as an offensive assistant, wide receivers coach, quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator.
