It’s never been about age for Bill Belichick.

It’s only been about whether a guy can coach.

And Belichick said Josh McDaniels can coach. McDaniels, 32, has been named new head coach of the Denver Broncos, succeeding Mike Shanahan.

“Josh McDaniels is one of the finest people and brightest, most talented coaches I have ever worked with,” Belichick, the Patriots’ head coach, said in a statement.

“Since joining us eight years ago, Josh performed a variety of roles and excelled in every one of them. Between his work on defense, in scouting, player evaluation and coordinating the offense, Josh is a very well-rounded coach whose outstanding body of work speaks for itself. He is the product of a pure football environment which is evident in his approach to the game.”
