Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels spurns Colts' head coaching job he'd already taken after Patriots sweeten his contract by Scott Davis on Feb 6, 2018, 8:13 PM 
- Josh McDaniels spurned the Indianapolis Colts' head coaching job to stay with the New England Patriots, according to a report.
- McDaniels had agreed to terms with the Colts, and the team had announced the agreement, but he had reportedly not signed a contract.
- Patriots owner Robert Kraft reportedly convinced McDaniels to stay by "sweetening" his deal.
Josh McDaniels reneged on a deal with the Indianapolis Colts to remain the offensive coordinator with the New England Patriots in a shocking move, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
McDaniels had agreed to become the Colts head coach, but Patriots owner Robert Kraft reportedly got involved in talks the last two days, eventually "sweetening" McDaniels' offer to keep him in New England. The decision comes after the Colts had already announced McDaniels' hiring, even tweeting links to a story about McDaniels' background and announcing the live-streaming of his introductory press conference. According to Schefter, McDaniels had already been reconsidering the agreement and had not signed a contract with the Colts yet. On Sunday, before the Patriots' Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, reports said there were rumors about McDaniels staying in New England.
