• Audacy and the New England Patriots announced a multi-year extension to their broadcast partnership. The agreement includes the continuation of exclusive Patriots Monday and Patriots Friday programming on WEEI/Boston, featuring first-year Patriots’ Head Coach Jerod Mayo and various Patriots players. This year also marks the 30th season of the partnership between WEEI and the Patriots, which began in 1995.
“As we celebrate our 30th season partnering with the Patriots, we’re proud to have provided fans with some of the most in-depth conversations during the greatest dynasty in NFL history,” said Mike Thomas, SVP/Market Manager, Audacy Boston. “This year, we look forward to ushering in a new era, featuring weekly interviews with Head Coach Jerod Mayo, the quarterback, and a variety of veteran leaders. We are thrilled to continue our coverage of the Patriots, highlighted by the exclusive interviews with players and coaches that have become appointment listening for decades.”
“We are happy to extend our partnership with WEEI for Patriots Mondays and Fridays,” said Murray Kohl, Patriots’ VP of Corporate Partnership Sales. “They have provided a great platform for Patriots fans to gain insight from our players and coaches weekly throughout the season. We look forward to continuing this programming with WEEI for years to come.”
Coach Mayo will kick off Patriots Monday with an all-new weekly Mayo Mondays feature on The Greg Hill morning show. Gresh & Fauria will feature a rotation of player interviews in middays, while Jones & Mego will feature the Patriots’ starting quarterback and an additional player during afternoon drive. Patriots Friday also returns with additional team-focused programming, including player interviews during The Greg Hill Show and Gresh & Fauria.
