New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel perhaps made the most significant hire on his staff when he brought Josh McDaniels back to become the Patriots' offensive coordinator. McDaniels, who previously held the same position from 2006 to '08 and 2012 to '21, returns to the Patriots for the third time.
McDaniels's relationship with Vrabel goes back decades to when Vrabel originally joined the Patriots in 2001, and McDaniels picked him up at the airport. Ultimately though, the decision to bring McDaniels back came down to his strength scheming and managing an offense.
