But the New England Patriots offensive coordinator appears to be a serious candidate this time around as several teams have reportedly expressed interest. Among them, according to the Boston Globe, are the Jaguars, 49ers and Rams, who've all contacted McDaniels about the position.
Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle is also reporting that members of the 49ers organization are planning to meet with McDaniels in New England this coming weekend.
