Josh McDaniels finally joined Broncos. McDaniels, 32, who has been the Patriots’ offensive coordinator for three seasons, signed a four-year contract worth $8 million to replace Mike Shanahan.


McDaniels said at the news conference “I’ve spent a lot of time and preparation over the last year getting myself more ready to go in case this opportunity did present itself again.”

Since Bill Belichick became Patriots coach in 2000, McDaniels is the third member of his staff to be tapped for an NFL head coaching job.

Former Patriots offensive coordinator Charlie Weis, who left in 2005 to become Notre Dame’s head coach, was replaced by McDaniels, who called the plays during the 2005 season as the team’s quarterbacks coach, a title he held from 2004 until his departure.

In 2007, McDaniels directed a Patriots offense that set NFL records for points (589) and touchdowns (75) in a season.
