New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel announced that defensive coordinator Terrell Williams is back with the team after a recent health scare.
An undisclosed medical incident kept Williams away from the team throughout most of the offseason program, but there were always expectations that he would return at some point.
He officially joined the Patriots' staff back in January, after spending the 2024 season as the defensive line coach and run game coordinator for the Detroit Lions. His ties with Vrabel go as far back as their time together with the Tennessee Titans from 2018-2022.
Now, they are officially reunited in New England for a new opportunity in 2025 and beyond.
Williams has remained in touch with the team through Zoom calls. So he hasn't been out of the loop on things heading into training camp.
It will be interesting to see how he implements his defensive style in person. He is known for an aggressive style, which is something that the team was missing last season. Patriots fans are hoping he can implement it with great effect immediately.
