The 36-year-old Hardegree was an offensive assistant for the Jets, working under Adam Gase. Prior to that he was the quarterbacks coach in Miami, also working for Gase, just as he did in Chicago and Denver.
ESPN's Mike Reiss wrote of the potential of the Patriots adding Hardegree on Sunday, reporting that Hardegree "recently met" with the Patriots.
The Patriots lost quarterbacks Jedd Fisch last year after he departed to take the head coaching job at the University of Arizona.
