The New England Patriots have initiated their search for a new head of football operations, conducting interviews with notable candidates. Brandon Hunt, the Eagles' director of scouting, has emerged as a key contender, with his interview scheduled today in Foxboro. Additionally, the Patriots reached out to Terrance Gray, the Bills' director of player personnel, who declined the interview opportunity.
