Report: Patriots seek DC after moving Terrell Williams to high-ranking ...
- On February 12, 2026, the New England Patriots moved Terrell Williams, Patriots defensive coordinator, to a high-ranking role, opening the defensive coordinator position, NFL Network reporters Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported.
- Following treatment and medical clearance, Williams missed most of 2025 after prostate cancer diagnosis and traveled with the Patriots to Super Bowl LX last week.
- Despite limited prior play-calling experience, Zak Kuhr served as the defensive play-caller throughout Williams's absence and led a top-ranked unit, NFL Network reported.
- Vrabel said on Tuesday that the Patriots will work through staff decisions, which could allow Kuhr to stay as coordinator while Williams remains in a less taxing role.
- Given Williams and Vrabel's shared history, his NFL defensive experience helps preserve continuity as the organization builds, with Vrabel saying decisions will take days or weeks.
