FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Shortly after their 23-16 victory against the Buffalo Bills, the Patriots announced they are parting ways with Head Coach Jerod Mayo.
The #Patriots are moving on from coach Jerod Mayo, as the handpicked successor to Bill Belichick goes one-and-done, per me, @MikeGarafolo and @TomPelissero.

In his first season as head coach, Mayo finished 4-13. With their recent win, the Patriots lost out on the 1st overall pick in this year’s upcoming NFL draft.
In a statement released by Patriots owner Robert Kraft, he says that this was “one of the hardest decisions I have ever made.”
