Patriots' Jerod Mayo Describes Matthew Slater's Role On Staff

Matthew Slater didn't have much time to enjoy the retired life, as he's already back in a new role with the New England Patriots. Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo brought back a number of former teammates to join his staff this upcoming season, including Dont'a Hightower, Tiquan Underwood and Troy Brown. Slater, however, has perhaps the strongest relationship with Mayo. “Slate is on the staff and I'm happy about that,” Mayo said Saturday, per team-provided video.
