One of the questions in the aftermath of Mayo's firing is the status of the front office, particularly vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf. During the presser, Kraft not only illustrated that Wolf's job is safe, but noted that he, along with personnel executive Alonzo Highsmith, will help lead the team in their head coaching search.

It has been a disastrous head coaching situation for the Patriots. They parted ways with the greatest coach in NFL history, Bill Belichick, in a move to hire Mayo as the head coach last year. Now, they’re making a move to fire Mayo after their second straight 4-13 season.

When Robert Kraft hired Jerod Mayo a year ago, he felt he’d identified the right person to follow Bill Belichick.

Robert Kraft showed no shame in taking full ownership of how New England Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo's first and only season at the helm shook out. Kraft, the New England Patriots CEO and Chairman, addressed the press on Monday to discuss the firing of Mayo along with fielding questions on other topics within the organization.

The Patriots have made it official, releasing a statement confirming that Jerod Mayo was fired after Sunday's win over the Bills.

Following just one season with the Patriots, Jerod Mayo, the heir apparent to Bill Belichick, was fired on Sunday. Owner Robert Kraft explained his decision on Monday.

New England Patriots' longtime owner Robert Kraft was pointing the finger at himself after another 4-13 season, while explaining his firing of Jerod Mayo.

Mayo, named Bill Belichick’s successor a year ago, was fired on Sunday after the Patriots’ 23-16 win over the Bills in the regular-season finale. The former Patriots linebacker, 38, posted a 4-13 record as head coach. Kraft added Monday he “went back and forth” on the situation over the past month.
