For the last several years, Josh McDaniels has been mentioned a great deal when it comes to head-coaching jobs around the league.
And while that likely will be the case again this year, another Patriots coach could also be in the mix -- inside linebackers coach Jerod Mayo.
“I believe Mayo is going to get an interview, maybe a couple of interviews," NFL Media's Ian Rapoport said Thursday on Gresh & Keefe with Brian Barrett and Andy Hart filling in. "I heard his Eagles interview last year was very, very good. I know he doesn’t have a lot of experience, and in New England the lack of titles, like he’s not technically a coordinator, which may or may not hurt him, but at least optics it doesn’t look great.
"I guess his interview with the Eagles went incredible. I’ve heard that from other teams who may or may not have a head coaching vacancy. So, teams are aware of that. I do think Mayo will get an interview and could he get a job in the right situation? I think he really could.”
