The New England Patriots have a new head coach in Mike Vrabel, and now he needs to find an offensive coordinator to continue the development of quarterback Drake Maye

Vrabel has said he doesn’t have a timeline for the coordinator search, though interviews will likely start in the coming week.

This week a couple more names have been added to the ongoing search, including one that just came in. According to a report by Jonathan Jones at CBS Sports, the Seahawks have also interviews former Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich for their open OC position.

Kelly and Vrabel also have history. They both served as members of Bill O’Brien’s staff with the Houston Texans. Kelly rose up the ranks to offensive coordinator there and survived O’Brien’s firing but not David Culley’s a year later. Vrabel hired him in Tennessee, where he served as passing game coordinator in 2022 and OC in 2023.

Macdonald fired Ryan Grubb last week. The move came one day after the former University of Washington offensive coordinator finished his only season as Seattle’s OC. The Seahawks missed the playoffs for the second consecutive season, the first time that’s happened since the 2008-’09 seasons.
