Chantel Mayo, the wife of fired former New England Patriots coach Jerod, has hit out at ‘lies’ over her husband’s abrupt firing on Sunday night.
Mayo was let go by the Patriots hours after a 23-16 win over the Buffalo Bills that saw New England lose the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Since then, reports have emerged over how Mayo struggled in his first season as a head coach, with one report claiming he played cards on a flight home after a loss instead of analyzing tape.
Now, Chantel has taken to Instagram to defend her husband, posting in capital letters on her story: ‘It never even crossed our minds to tell the truth… but I couldn’t fathom all the lies we’ve read that are being told to save face.
‘What happened to the class????? We’ve been taking the high rod and letting everyone do their thing since Sunday.
‘But playing with someone’s name won’t be tolerated. I bet the fake stories will stop before the real ones start…’
