The New England Patriots have filled another gap on their coaching staff. Jeremy Springer, a former assistant coach with the Los Angeles Rams, will be their next special teams coordinator.
Springer was one of three coaches reportedly in consideration for the position, and has now become Jerod Mayo’s second hire since he took over as head coach earlier this month. He also is the first external coach to join New England’s staff this offseason.
With all that said, let’s take a closer look at Springer and his background to find out who he is as a coach, and why he will be the Patriots’ next special teams coach.
