With the New England Patriots officially in offseason mode, they shocked everyone with a unprecedented public coaching update late Thursday night.
The team announced they were working on a long-term extension to keep inside linebackers coach Jerod Mayo in New England, and they also mentioned they were beginning true offensive coordinator interviews next week.
With that being said, the Patriots have seemingly let everyone know that they are already getting started on offseason priority No. 1, coaching.
Although the offensive coaching scheme in 2022 was less than desirable, the Patriots have plenty of personnel needs they should address this offseason, specifically, offensive tackle, outside corner and wide receiver. It is likely that corner and tackle are better addressed in the draft, but there are some notable receivers who could shake free.
These five blockbuster moves could help bolster the Patriots’ wide receiver room that currently features a collection of secondary and third options, while still desperately needing a true No. 1 option for Mac Jones.
