Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports The New England Patriots will promote defensive line coach DeMarcus Covington to defensive coordinator, according to multiple media reports Saturday.
Covington, 34, would be the first staff hire for new head coach Jerod Mayo, who recently was promoted as an assistant to replace longtime head coach Bill Belichick.
The Patriots hired Covington as an assistant in 2017 and he moved up to defensive line coach in 2020.
Belichick often called the defensive plays, with the last defensive coordinator title held by Matt Patricia in 2017.
