Patriots confirm Joe Judge is assistant head coach, announce titles for full coaching staff

A report in March indicated that Joe Judge’s title with the Patriots would be assistant head coach and the team confirmed it on Thursday.

The team posted titles for their entire staff on their website and it shows Judge will have the assistant head coach title after 2022’s disastrous foray into offensive coaching. Judge was listed as offensive assistant/quarterbacks, but was the special teams coordinator during his first stint with the team.

Bill O’Brien was hired as the team’s offensive coordinator this offseason and he also has the quarterbacks coach title. The Patriots offensive staff also includes wide receivers/kickoff returners coach Troy Brown, wide receivers coach Ross Douglas, offensive line coach Adrian Klemm, tight ends coach Will Lawing, running backs coach Vinnie Sunseri, assistant quarterbacks coach Evan Rothstein, and assistant offensive line coach Billy Yates.

The Patriots held onto linebackers coach Jerod Mayo despite interest from other teams in interviewing him as a defensive coordinator. The Patriots have no one with that title, but Mayo will work with safeties coach Brian Belichick, linebackers coach Steve Belichick, defensive line coach DeMarcus Covington, and cornerbacks coach Mike Pellegrino. V’Angelo Bentley and Keith Jones are both defensive coaching fellows.

Cameron Achord returns as the team’s special teams coordinator and Joe Houston is the assistant special teams coach.
