The Jets\u2019 Mike Vrabel dreams may be in serious peril thanks to one of their fiercest rivals.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Patriots\u2019 decision to fire Jerod Mayo shortly after their season-ending win over the Bills on Sunday has thrown a serious wrench into the idea that the Jets could be a player for Vrabel\u2019s services.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vrabel is already considered one of the top targets to be New England\u2019s next head coach, especially considering the former Titans\u2019 coach\u2019s connection to the Patriots franchise and the tight relationship he has with owner Robert Kraft.\u00a0<\/p>\n
NFL Network\u2019s Ian Rapoport posted shortly after reporting news of Mayo\u2019s demise that \u201cthe name Mike Vrabel very quickly comes to the forefront.\u201d<\/p>\n
CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones also reported that Vrabel \u201cwill be a top name\u201d in the Patriots coaching search.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vrabel is considered one of the top head coaching candidates on the market and was expected to have his pick of the litter this offseason.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He had an interview with the Jets last week and is expected to have interviews with the Bears and Saints this week about their vacancies.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Reports indicated that the interview with the Jets had gone \u201cvery well.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cVrabel and the Jets is certainly something to keep an eye on,\u201d Rapoport said on NFL Network on Sunday before news of Mayo\u2019s firing. \u201cThe fact that he took the Jets first is significant. There could be some mutual interest here. A long way to go, but certainly this is one to watch with Mike Vrabel and the Jets.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

But the situation may be changing rather quickly now that the Patriots\u2019 job is open and one NFL reporter seemed to indicate the flirtation with the Jets may have been a ploy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
CBS Sports\u2019 Aditi Kinkhabwala reported that the interest in the Jets \u201cwas to put pressure on Patriots to make a move.\u201d<\/p>\n
SportsKeeda\u2019s Tony Pauline reported last week that Vrabel \u201cwants\u201d the Patriots\u2019 head coaching job, even when it looked like Mayo might be retained. <\/p>\n
Vrabel played during the dynasty years of the Patriots from 2001-08 as a linebacker and was inducted into the team\u2019s Hall of Fame in 2023.<\/p>\n
During his halftime speech in Foxboro during the team\u2019s Hall of Fame celebration Vrabel declared that \u201cwe\u2019ve got a game to win\u201d referring to the Patriots.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As head coach of the Titans, Vrabel helped lead Tennessee to a 54-45 record while reaching the AFC Championship and winning the AFC South twice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In an interview with The Athletic, Vrabel described what he\u2019ll be looking for when he accepts his next coaching gig.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s got to be clear communication with ownership, so that we understand as coaches what the expectations are,\u201d Vrabel said. \u201cThat\u2019s so we can explain to them what\u2019s reasonable, what we can do, what we probably can do and what we\u2019re going to try to do \u2014 or die trying. I want to have a structure in place that people see the game the same way I do from an X\u2019s and O\u2019s standpoint, from a personnel standpoint, with team-building. We would hopefully have that alignment, which is critical.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd I would like to be able to say that there\u2019s a quarterback that you feel like you can win with \u2014 or that there\u2019s a path to find the one that you can win with.\u201d<\/p>\n
If Vrabel stays true to what he said, that could also put the Patriots ahead of the Jets considering the team\u2019s quarterback situation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Questions surround whether Aaron Rodgers will be with the Jets next season or even playing in the NFL still.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Outside of Rodgers, there isn\u2019t a clear direction where the franchise will go with the position if he is not brought back.<\/p>\n
The Patriots have a young rising star QB in Drake Maye, who has improved throughout the season, along with plenty of cap space to help build a winning roster going forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
