According to Dianna Russini of The Athletic, the New England Patriots are set to hire Josh McDaniels as their next offensive coordinator. The 48-year-old— who interviewed with the franchise on Tuesday in Foxborough —has widely been considered the favorite since New England announced Mike Vrabel as their head coach last Sunday.

McDaniels returns to New England for his third stint with the franchise, this time to work with talented young quarterback Drake Maye.

Josh McDaniels is joining Vrabel’s coaching staff as New England’s offensive coordinator, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. A six-time Super Bowl champion as an assistant coach, McDaniels is best known as Bill Belichick’s longtime offensive playcaller.
