There\u2019s been mixed reporting on how safe Jerod Mayo\u2019s job is, but all signs point to Alex Van Pelt being the scapegoat.<\/p>\n<p>Sports Illustrated\u2019s Albert Breer on 98.5 The Sports Hub\u2019s \u201cToucher &amp; Hardy\u201d described the change as \u201ca pound of flesh will be extracted.\u201d The Boston Sports Journal\u2019s Mike Giardi believes Van Pelt \u201chas been gone for like two months.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI legit think there was almost nothing that was going to save him,\u201d Giardi said on WEEI\u2019s \u201cAfternoon Show.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It would be a fascinating move for the Patriots to make as Drake Maye was one of Van Pelt\u2019s strongest supporters amid New England\u2019s losing streak.
