Former Bengals coach gets interview with Patriots for defensive coordinator

A former Bengals coach gets a chance in New England.

Elsewhere in the AFC, the New England Patriots and Bill Belichick have parted ways after he spent 24 years as the head coach. Jerod Mayo has been hired to fill that position and is beginning to fill out his staff.

Former Cincinnati Bengals linebackers coach Tem Lukabu, who spent the 2019 season with the team is one of the candidates.

Since then, he spent three seasons as the defensive coordinator for Boston College and for the past year has been the outside linebackers coach for the Carolina Panthers.

It has also been reported that Bengals senior personnel executive Trey Brown has been connected to the Patriots for their general manager opening since he spent three years as a scout for New England from 2010-12. He has also had interest elsewhere for GM openings with the Las Vegas Raiders requesting an interview with him recently.
