Jerod Mayo's wife took to social media on Friday to speak out against rumors associated with Mayo's firing as head coach of the New England Patriots

According to the NFL Network, Glenn has declined an interview request to speak to the Patriots. After one season, the Patriots (4-13) made the decision to part ways with Jerod Mayo.

The New England Patriots could be on the verge of hiring their next coach after completing an interview with Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson on Friday, the fourth candidate to be brought in as part of the search to fill the vacancy created by the firing of Jerod Mayo.

When the NFL regular season comes to a close, it sends the head-coaching carousel into high gear. The 2025 cycle is in full swing and began with six openings across the NFL. One of those has since been filled with the New England Patriots hiring Mike Vrabel to lead the franchise after moving on from Jerod Mayo after one season.

It was a terrible hire when it happened, but the New England Patriots not even giving Jerod Mayo a chance to improve or grow as a head coach was another terrible look for the fallen Evil Empire. Mayo was hand-picked by Robert Kraft to succeed Bill Belichick after moving on from him last year.
