BREAKING: Raiders Miss Out on Vrabel as New Patriots hires him as the new Head Coach insider reveals

As the head coach search continues in Las Vegas, Mike Vrabel can be checked off the list as he agreed to a head coaching position with the New England Patriots.

The Las Vegas Raiders have to continue their hunt for a head coach with one less candidates on the market, as Mike Vrabel, who was thought about as a possible ft for the Raiders, has decided to become the new head coach for the New England Patriots.

A former Patriot himself, Vrabel takes on the big task of rebuilding in New England to get the Patriots back to the promise land.

Given Vrabel has a sentimental connection to the team he floruished in the league with, more passion will come out of him as a head coach for New England than it would for Las Vegas.

Vrabel has coached experience to bring to the struggling franchise in the Patriots, as this isn’t his first rodeo in a coaching position. Having cached Ohio State, the Houston Texans, and most recently, the Tennessee Titans, Vrabel should feel confident with a familiar role.

Given Vrabel has been released from his duties in the past before, fans should speculate if the deal with the Patriots is a one and done or will last for years to come.

While the deal with the Patriots is reported to be a multiple year contract, that has not stopped front offices from reliving men of their duties in head coaching positions. Best case scenario for Vrabel and this struggling Patriots franchise is to win the games they are supposed to win, and be competitive in games where they are predicted to lose
