Open Letter from P
As the Chairman and CEO of this incredible organization, I believe in transparency, gratitude, and a shared vision for our future. Today, I want to address an important matter that reflects not just the spirit of our team but the very essence of what it means to be a Patriot.
First and foremost, I want to extend my deepest appreciation to every fan who has stood by us through triumphs and challenges. You are the lifeblood of this team, and your unwavering loyalty inspires us to reach for greatness every day.
In recent months, questions have swirled about the future of our leadership, specifically about our Head Coach, Jerod Mayo. Let me be unequivocally clear: Jerod Mayo is the embodiment of the Patriot Way. His commitment to excellence, tireless work ethic, and deep understanding of the game make him an extraordinary leader.
Jerod’s journey with us began on the field as a standout linebacker, where he showcased not only his athletic prowess but also his intelligence, grit, and unrelenting drive. Transitioning from player to coach, he brought the same passion and dedication to developing our players and enhancing our culture. His ability to connect with athletes, inspire them to achieve their best, and adapt to the ever-evolving landscape of the NFL is nothing short of remarkable.
As we look ahead, I am proud to reaffirm our unwavering confidence in Jerod Mayo as the head coach of the New England Patriots. His vision aligns perfectly with our mission to build a team that embodies resilience, discipline, and unity. Under his guidance, we are committed to writing the next great chapter in Patriots history, one that honors our storied past while embracing the challenges of the future.
But a team is more than just its leadership. It is a reflection of the community it represents. To our fans, your passion fuels us. To our players, your dedication inspires us. And to our staff, your hard work elevates us. Together, we are stronger, and together, we will rise.
As we embark on this new chapter, I encourage all of us to rally behind Jerod and the team. Let us stand united, not just as a football organization but as a family. Our greatest victories lie ahead, and I promise you this: the Patriots will continue to strive for excellence on and off the field.
Thank you for your trust, your support, and your belief in what we stand for. The best is yet to come.
With gratitude and determination,
Robert Kraft
Chairman and CEO
New England Patriots
