Josh McDaniels coached Tom Brady, Cam Newton and Mac Jones as the New England Patriots offensive coordinator. Now, he’ll return to the sidelines in Foxborough to coach Drake Maye.

McDaniels agreed Tuesday night to become the Patriots’ offensive coordinator again, a source confirmed to the Globe. It’s the same role McDaniels had from 2006-08 and 2012-21, when he was essentially the “head coach” of the offense for Bill Belichick and was a crucial piece of the dynasty.

Mike Vrabel has hired Josh McDaniels and Terrell Williams to be his top coordinators, while the Patriots have retained Jeremy Springer to lead special teams.
