New England\u2019s new head coach already brought in a longtime colleague to join the team\u2019s slate of executives, and both coordinator vacancies very well could be filled by coaches who worked with or alongside Vrabel in the past.<\/p>\n<p>The same goes for other roles that, while not surrounded by as much fanfare, are very important to team success.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSources around the NFL expect Vrabel to bring Frank Piraino, his former strength coach in Tennessee, to New England to achieve that (conditioning) goal,\u201d ESPN\u2019s Mike Reiss wrote in a column published Sunday. \u201cPiraino, who knows the area well from his time at Boston College, spent last season with the Giants.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a2.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0117%2Fr1439746_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Who's on Mike Vrabel's radar for Patriots coordinators? - ESPN\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd just as Bill Belichick had football research director Ernie Adams to assist him with game management, Vrabel had John Streicher in that role with the Titans. Now, Streicher is expected to follow Vrabel to New England. Streicher, who like Vrabel is an Ohio State alum, spent the 2024 season with the Rams.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When Vrabel took the podium for the first time as Patriots coach, it was apparent that he had a clear vision for how he was going to try to turn things around in Foxboro, Mass. Parts of that plan surely included coaches and assistants, who are about to enter a challenging but potentially rewarding situation in New England.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New England Patriots reportedly are expected to make these staff additions after hiring Mike Vrabel as head coach.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11119,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11118","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-england-patriots"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
