DeMarcus Covington will represent Patriots at NFL accelerator program

New England Patriots defensive line coach DeMarcus Covington will be the representative for the organization at the NFL Coach Accelerator Program in Minneapolis.

The Coach Accelerator Program aims for an increase in exposure between owners, executives, and the coaches themselves. The goal here is to provide an opportunity to develop relationships between the individuals.

New England allowing Covington to spearhead these efforts speaks to the endless amount of respect the assistant coach has earned in the organization. In many ways, it’s not surprising he was the one chosen for this opportunity.

Covington has been a busy man in New England. He was also part of the Patriots’ coaching staff that worked at the Senior Bowl.

It’s clear that the Patriots see something in Covington. He began as a coaching assistant in 2017 and has quickly accelerated up the ranks. If anything, it’s clear the team is doing everything it can to get him noticed.
