65th season in franchise history
The2024 season was theNew England Patriots ' 55th in theNational Football League (NFL), their 65th overall, and their 23rd playing home games atGillette Stadium . This was their first year under a newde facto general manager , executive vice president of player personnelEliot Wolf , and their only season underhead coach Jerod Mayo .
The Patriots matched their AFC-worst 4–13 record fromthe previous year , unable to improve upon it following a Week 17 loss to theLos Angeles Chargers . They started 1–6 while also losing 6 straight games for the first time since1993 . The Patriots failed to end their four-yearAFC East title drought after a Week 12 loss to theMiami Dolphins dropping them to 3–9, guaranteeing their third losing season in a row and their fourth in five years. The Patriots were eliminated from playoff contention the following week with a loss to theIndianapolis Colts coupled with theHouston Texans beating theJacksonville Jaguars . After an upset win over theBuffalo Bills in Week 18, Jerod Mayo was fired after just one season.[ 1] That same win also eliminated their chance of obtaining the first overall pick in the2025 NFL draft .[ 2] In addition, after theNew York Jets defeated the Dolphins later that day, the Patriots finished in last place in theAFC East , the first time since both1999 and2000 the Patriots finished last in the AFC East in consecutive seasons.
This was the first season since1999 without long time head coachBill Belichick , as he and the Patriots mutually agreed to part ways on January 11.[ 3] A day later, linebacker coachJerod Mayo was hired as the 15th head coach in franchise history; Mayo had played with the team between2008 and2015 , winningSuper Bowl XLIX with them. This was also the first season since2007 without special teams starMatthew Slater on the roster after he announced his retirement on February 20.
