Coach Mike Vrabel addressed the report that he told Las Vegas Raiders minority owner Tom Brady that he was taking the New England Patriots job. That conversation reportedly led to the Raiders passing on interviewing Vrabel altogether. However, according to Vrabel, that might not have been specifically how things went.

The New England Patriots officially have their new head coach, as they hired Mike Vrabel to come in and take things over on Sunday morning. But before he accepted his new job, the former star linebacker shared a message with his old teammate, Tom Brady, about the Las Vegas Raiders head coach opening.
