Report: Patriots Offensive Line Coach Leaving Due To Vaccine Requirement

(Foxboro, MA) -- A member of the New England Patriots' coaching staff is not returning to the team for the 2021 season because of the NFL's COVID-19 vaccine guidelines, according to an ESPN report. Cole Popovich was with the Pats since 2015 and served as the team's co-offensive line coach in 2020. It's not clear if Popovich refused to get vaccinated. The NFL is requiring all members of coaching staffs to get the shot. The other New England co-offensive line coach, Carmen Bricillo, will now handle the duty by himself.
