The Patriots have granted the Giants permission to interview assistants Josh McDaniels and Joe Judge for their head coaching vacancy, according to Jim McBride of the Boston Globe. They’ve also given their blessing to the Browns and Panthers to speak with McDaniels, McBride hears.
Both men will have to wait until next week to interview as candidates coaching in Wild Card games are not permitted to interview next week. But, after the Patriots face the Titans on Saturday night, they’ll have a busy schedule ahead of them.
McDaniels, the Patriots’ offensive coordinator, famously left the Colts at the altar following the 2017 season. Two years later, teams are still intrigued by what he can bring to the table, though they may be concerned about a potential flip-flop. For his part, McDaniels believes that teams will still be willing to consider him for HC positions.
As the Broncos’ head coach in 2009 and (most of ) 2010, McDaniels coached Denver to an 11-17 mark. Judge, the Patriots’ special teams coordinator and wide receivers coach, joined the Pats in 2012 after a three-year stint at Alabama.
Why would anyone want to hire McDaniels at all or even want to work for him. Selfish person who cares about no one but himself.
That’s the Patriot way
You sound like a Colts fan.
I’m sorry but how does a commenter on a rumors site know anything about who an nfl coach is as a person?
Can the Pats grant the Giants permission to interview Belichick?
Pass on McDaniels. Don’t need another coordinator who was terrible has a HC. Plus his success is tied to Bill, just like most former patriots. Players and coaches.
