Fresh off his firing as head coach of the Detroit Lions, Matt Patricia has wasted little time getting back to work with the New England Patriots.
The Pats' former defensive coordinator returned to New England after two and a half disastrous years in Michigan and is apparently entrenched in NFL draft prep with head coach Bill Belichick.
The longtime Patriots coach told reporters on Thursday that Patricia has been one of his most trusted advisors in the run-up to the draft.
“We’ve accumulated a lot of information,” Belichick said (h/t Pro Football Talk's Michael Davis Smith).
