Under-The-Radar Patriot Retires After Seven Seasons In New England

While the Patriots are getting a fresh start with their coaching staff under Jerod Mayo, New England reportedly is planning to retain some members of last season’s staff.

According to the Boston Herald’s Doug Kyed, the Patriots will bring back Troy Brown, Mike Pellegrino and Brian Belichick. It’s unclear what role Brown will have with Hughes taking over the coaching duties for the receivers. Pellegrino and Belichick are expected to return as the cornerbacks and safeties coaches, respectively.

Hughes spent from 2020-22 as an offensive assistant for the Patriots. Hughes served as a quality control coach at the University of Washington this past season.

Bob Bicknell, a Holliston, Mass. native, was another addition that wasn’t previously reported. Bicknell has 30 years worth of coaching experience combined between the collegiate and pro ranks and last worked for the New Orleans Saints the past two seasons as a senior offensive assistant.

The news of Quinn joining the staff didn’t leak, either. He was a special teams assistant with the Tennessee Titans in 2023 and before that spent 16 seasons in a variety of special teams role with the New York Giants.

Tippett is a familiar name among Patriots fans as he is the son of Pro Football Hall of Famers Andre Tippett, who still plays a role in the organization as the executive director of community affairs.
