Former OC candidate Adrian Klemm reportedly hired by Patriots

The New England Patriots continue to build their 2023 offensive staff with the reported hiring of former Oregon associate head coach, run game coordinator and offensive line coach Adrian Klemm.

ESPN’s senior college football writer Pete Thamel reported the news on Monday.

Klemm, who was the first player drafted by coach Bill Belichick in his tenure with the Patriots, interviewed for New England’s vacant offensive coordinator position, before Bill O’Brien was officially hired for the job.

The Patriots are clearly in need of an offensive line coach, and the initial thinking is that Klemm could help fill that void upon arrival.

In his previous NFL venture, Klemm worked as the offensive line coach for the Pittsburgh Steelers. So he clearly has the experience and coaching talent to lend a helping hand to a unit that drastically underperformed for the Patriots in the 2022 season.
