New England Patriots Fire Jerod Mayo After Week 18 Win Over Buffalo Bills, Loss of No. 1 Draft Pick

Locked On Patriots - Daily Podcast On The New England Patriots

Just moments after rookie quarterback Joe Milton passed for a touchdown and ran for another in his NFL debut, the New England Patriots fired head coach Jerod Mayo after only one season on the bench. The Pats cost themselves the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft with a 23-16 win over the AFC East champion Buffalo Bills on Sunday — when a loss would have guaranteed them the top draft pick. Instead, they fell to No. 4 behind Tennessee, Cleveland and the New York Giants. Host Mike D’Abate welcomes Steve Balestrieri of PatsFans.com to discuss Mayo’s firing, the Pats Draft position and the standouts in their Week 18 season finale. #nfl #newenglandpatriots
