Things could change drastically for the New England Patriots, but it seems Mike Vrabel, alongside Terrell Williams, will implement a tried-and-true defensive plan for the team that has already been proven to work.

Mike Vrabel joined the Patriots as head coach in a throwback to the Bill Belichick era. But his tenure won't involve Belichick's son, Brian.

A former Tennessee Vols assistant coach was reportedly hired by the New England Patriots on Monday. According a report from NFL insider Jordan Schultz, new Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel is hiring Doug Marrone to New England's staff.
