Mike Vrabel’s NFL Coaching Hopes Clouded by Patriots Job Uncertainty

Mike Vrabel is considered one of the top candidates for an NFL head-coaching job, but his desired team may not be available this offseason. According to reports, people close to Vrabel want him to coach the New England Patriots, a team he played for from 2001-08 and won three Super Bowls with.

Vrabel has also been linked to coaching the New York Jets, but experts believe that scenario is unlikely. Instead, Vrabel may use the Jets as leverage to land another job. The Tennessee Titans unexpectedly fired Vrabel, who has since gone 54-45 in six seasons as head coach.

New England Patriots’ Jerod Mayo faces uncertainty about his future after just one season as head coach. The team committed to him as their coach-in-waiting but may reconsider if they can secure a better option.

On the trade market, the Toronto Maple Leafs are reportedly interested in Chris Kreider, but experts warn that taking on the struggling New York Rangers forward would be a high-risk move for the team. Meanwhile, Roki Sasaki’s MLB recruitment is shrouded in mystery after he made an unusual request to his suitors: no team players should be involved in recruiting visits.

In contrast, Brad Treliving may find it difficult to resist the allure of Chris Kreider, but ultimately deciding to pass on him would be a smart move for the Toronto Blue Jays general manager.
