New England Patriots legend Rob Gronkowski gave some interesting thoughts on the team's two most recent head coaches in a recent interview with Fox News Digital.

The Patriots’ decision to fire Jerod Mayo just over an hour after the 2024 regular season wrapped has led to several strong reactions from former Patriots players — many of whom believe that the first-year head coach was put in a bad spot by Robert Kraft and Eliot Wolf.

During an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show on Monday, ex-Patriots head coach, and current leader of the UNC Tar Heels, Bill Belichick had a funny one-liner when asked about New England canning Jerod Mayo.

Roughly 12 months after Patriots owner Robert Kraft parted ways with Belichick, Kraft fired Mayo after one season as HC.

The New England Patriots enjoyed decades of stability at the head coaching position, but for the third time in three seasons, they will have a new man lurking on the sidelines. That's because the team announced Sunday it has decided to part ways with Jerod Mayo after just one season on the job after succeeding Bill Belichick in Foxborough.

After enjoying one of the lengthiest periods of coaching stability under Bill Belichick, the Patriots are going the one-and-done rout with Jerod Mayo.

From a lack of talent on the roster to his inexperience and struggles with discipline, Mayo had little chance to succeed in New England.

“The harsh truth,” he wrote, “is this: Mayo’s decision to coach to win — the last and most damaging of his string of often contradictory if not outright inexplicable decisions — showed a complete lack of awareness regarding what is best for the Patriots’ present and future.”

Jerod Mayo was fired by the Patriots after just one season and he had a previous relationship with C's head coach Joe Mazzulla.
