Patriots QB Coach Ashton Grant Declines Raiders OC Interest to Stay in New England

The choice preserves continuity for Drake Maye after a breakout season working with Grant.

Overview

  • ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Grant chose to remain with the Patriots rather than discuss the Las Vegas Raiders’ offensive coordinator vacancy under new head coach Klint Kubiak.
  • Yahoo Sports added that Grant is also not in consideration for the Rams’ or Seahawks’ open coordinator jobs.
  • The decision maintains stability around quarterback Drake Maye, whose rapid development drew praise after New England’s run to the Super Bowl.
  • Maye said earlier this week he looks forward to operating in the same offense for a second year and credited Grant with helping translate concepts and build his toolkit at the line of scrimmage.
  • Grant is regarded as a rising assistant and is expected to draw future coordinator interest, according to the reporting.
