Mike Vrabel’s contract details: What is the Patriots head coach’s salary and how many years are left?

The Patriots are embarking on a new era with Mike Vrabel at the helm, who seems to be pushing his former side in a new direction with moves for players that will hit the heights needed to satisfy the demanding fanbase of the franchise.

The former NFL linebacker won three Super Bowls under Bill Belichick before retiring in 2010 and transitioning into coaching, where he has made a name for himself as an impressive motivator and tactician.

He now, as mentioned, heads the project at the New England Patriots, who have made it to the playoffs where they face the Chargers on Sunday, Jan. 11 in NFL’s Wild Card weekend.

On January 12, 2025, Vrabel put pen to paper on a multiyear deal to become the head coach of the Patriots, much in need of a reform. Public details remain scarce—terms of the deal haven’t been disclosed—but multiple reports confirm that it’s a robust, multiyear agreement reflecting his extensive coaching and playing pedigree. Estimates are around the $14 million to $17 million per year range.

In keeping with the contracts, multiple outlets report that the New England Patriots are among several teams keeping tabs on Pittsburgh Steelers’ All‑Pro edge rusher T.J. Watt, who skipped minicamp amid failed contract talks. While nothing is finalised, we watch that one with keen eyes.
