Mike Vrabel Wins Coach of the Year at NFL Honors After Leading Stunning Patriots Turnaround

  • On Feb. 6, at NFL Honors in San Francisco, Mike Vrabel, New England Patriots head coach, was named the AP NFL Coach of the Year via recorded speech.
  • Following a 10-win improvement, Vrabel guided the Patriots to a 14-3 regular-season record in his first season.
  • A nationwide panel of 50 media members completed voting before the playoffs, tabulated by Lutz and Carr, with Vrabel receiving 19 first-place votes and 302 points, Vrabel said, 'Ultimately my name will go on this award, but this award belongs to a building, it belongs to a staff, and ultimately it belongs to the men in the locker room who believed when they couldn't always see it.'
  • With the Super Bowl looming, Vrabel can win his first Super Bowl as a head coach Sunday if the Patriots beat the Seahawks at 6:30 p.m. in Super Bowl LX, aiming for historic milestones.
  • This marks Vrabel's second AP Coach of the Year honor, having won in 2021, and he became the seventh coach to win the award with two different teams.
