The Patriots’ lost 2024 season was worse than most knew. Go inside Jerod Mayo’s first and only year as head coach, and the franchise’s continue fall from grace.

Pats fans were rooting for him. But as verbal missteps continued, it became obvious Mayo lacked the proper amount of head-coach training.

After enjoying one of the lengthiest periods of coaching stability under Bill Belichick, the Patriots are going the one-and-done rout with Jerod Mayo.

The New England Patriots enjoyed decades of stability at the head coaching position, but for the third time in three seasons, they will have a new man lurking on the sidelines. That's because the team announced Sunday it has decided to part ways with Jerod Mayo after just one season on the job after succeeding Bill Belichick in Foxborough.

In the wake of New England’s decision to fire Mayo on Sunday following a disastrous 4-13 campaign, The Athletic reported Wednesday how the former linebacker-turned-coach “didn’t offer” Steve Belichick, the son of former head coach Bill Belichick, “the chance to continue calling plays” on defense as he had done in previous years.

Owner Robert Kraft announced the firing in a statement shortly after New England closed its 4-13 season with a 23-16 win over the Buffalo Bills.

The New England Patriots’ handling of Jerod Mayo’s firing and the aftermath has done little to inspire confidence in the NFL’s hiring practices or the ownership’s decision-making. For decades, Robert Kraft had been celebrated as a model owner during the Patriots dynasty.

According to Chad Graff of The Athletic, Kraft’s literal succession timeline intended for Mayo to take over in 2025. When Kraft instituted his plan in 2023, he planned to give Belichick two more seasons (allowing the coach to break the all-time wins record) before Mayo would take over the gig.
