Audacy and the New England Patriots ink a multi-year extension to their broadcast partnership. The agreement includes the continuation of "Patriots Monday" and "Patriots Friday" programming, featuring first-year Patriots Head Coach Jerod Mayo and Patriots players on WEEI-FM & AM in Boston. This year 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 Audacy Boston Senior Vice President and Market Manager Mike Thomas. "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," added New England Patriots Vice President of Corporate Partnership Sales Murray Kohl. "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" on WEEI's morning show, "The Greg Hill Show," which airs from 6-10am ET. Midday show "Gresh & Fauria" with Andy Gresh and former Patriots tight end Christian Fauria will continue to feature a rotation of player interviews from 10am-2pm ET. Afternoon show "Jones & Mego," hosted by Adam Jones and Meghan Ottolini, will feature the Patriots starting quarterback and an additional player during the 2-6pm ET timeslot.

"Patriots Friday" also returns with additional team-focused programming every Friday, including player interviews during "The Greg Hill Show" and "Gresh & Fauria." New this year are rotating interviews with offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt, defensive coordinator DeMarcus Covington and special teams coordinator Jeremy Springer every Tuesday.
