#Patriots QBs coach Ashton Grant will remain in New England rather than pursue the Raiders’ vacant OC job, per Adam Schefter

What Maye said about potentially working with Grant and OC Josh McDaniels again in 2026:
February 13, 2026 at 8:32 PM
The report cards led to some real change for the Patriots: they added a family services and football engagement coordinator in 2025 as a direct result of repeatedly receiving bad grades in that area.
Schefter: NFL prevailed in grievance vs. NFLPA on team report cards.

Future report cards won't be made public.

Defensive coordinator Terrell Williams will be moving to a "high-ranking role" on the Patriots' staff, per @rapsheet.bsky.social and @tompelissero.bsky.social.

With the DC position now open, Zak Kuhr seems like the logical candidate.

Drake Maye's spike in his pressure-to-sack ratio in the playoffs may reframe his dramatic 2nd-half improvement as a product of low-sack opponents like the Jets, Ravens, and Bengals.

Weeks 1-9: 36.6% (35th of 35)
Weeks 10-18: 13.7% (6th of 32)
Playoffs: 53.8% (15th of 15)

A conservative approach hampering the offense, Harold Landry being a virtual non-factor in his return, and more takeaways from the Patriots' snap counts against the Seahawks.
