As the Patriots search for a new offensive coordinator, one name that keeps popping up is Adam Gase.
That’s according to NFL Network’s Mike Giardi. Girardi reported that Bill O’Brien’s name has also been linked to the Patriots and that they are also considering an internal promotion to replace Josh McDaniels, the Raiders’ new head coach.
Gase has not had an NFL job since the Jets fired him following the 2020 season. He totaled just nine wins over two seasons in New York and went 2-14 in 2020. The Jets hired Gase hoping he could develop Sam Darnold and turn Gang Green into an offensive force, but New York had one of the NFL’s worst offenses during the coach’s brief tenure.
Gase was the head coach in Miami prior to arriving in the Big Apple. He went 23-25 in three seasons. He was the Broncos’ offensive coordinator from 2013-2014 and the Bears’ offensive coordinator in 2015.
