New England Patriots linebacker Mack Wilson is excited to work with his position coach Jerod Mayo.
Wilson views Mayo in high regard. Wilson was unfamiliar with Mayo when he first arrived in New England. However, Wilson watched film of the former linebacker, and grew to like his style of play. Wilson also enjoys how Mayo coaches and his style of coaching seems to fit the linebacker will.
Wilson is looking to bounce back and become a focal point of the Patriots linebacking unit. He recorded 42 tackles in 14 games, in what was a little bit of a down year for him. He could have a chance to improve upon those statistics, as the Patriots search for a stabilizing veteran piece at linebacker, following the departures of Kyle Van Noy and Dont’a Hightower.
