[edit] Coaching career
[edit] College
McDaniels began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Michigan State University from 1999 to 2000 under Nick Saban.
[edit] NFL
McDaniels joined the Patriots in 2001 as a personnel assistant. From 2002 to 2003, he served as a defensive coaching assistant for the team, working with the defensive backs in 2003. In 2004, he became the team's quarterbacks coach. After offensive coordinator Charlie Weis left the team following the 2004 season, the Patriots went without an offensive coordinator for the 2005 season, though it is suspected that McDaniels called the offensive plays for the season.[1] After the season, McDaniels was officially promoted to offensive coordinator, while retaining his responsibilities coaching the team's quarterbacks.
