Josh McCown will not join Patriots as offensive coordinator candidate

masslive.com January 17, 2025, 09:01 PM UTC

Josh McCown, a rumored candidate for the New England Patriots' offensive coordinator position, will not be leaving his role with the Minnesota Vikings. He is expected to remain in Minnesota unless he receives a head coaching offer. McCown previously coached Patriots quarterback Drake Maye in high school, which fueled speculation about his potential move. However, he recently interviewed for a head coaching position with the New York Jets. New head coach Mike Vrabel is still in the process of assembling his coaching staff. Former Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels is also being considered for the role.
