Ned Burke (born in Wayland, Massachusetts[1]) is a former American football coaching assistant for the New England Patriots of the National Football League.[1]
Playing career
After graduating from Wayland High School in 1990,[1] Burke spent one year at Phillips Academy.[2] Burke then attended Cornell University where he played lacrosse and football as a quarterback and running back from 1991 to 1995.[1]
Coaching career
Following his playing career at Cornell, Burke played semi-pro football in Spain before returning to become the offensive coordinator for the Salisbury School in Salisbury, Connecticut in 1997 and 1998.[1] While at the Belmont Stakes in 1999, Burke met then-New York Jets assistant head coach Bill Belichick, also a Phillips Academy alumnus, who later hired Burke to an entry-level position with the Jets' coaching staff.[1] When Belichick became head coach of the Patriots in 2000, Burke followed Belichick to New England as an offensive coaching assistant.[1] When Patriots quarterbacks coach Dick Rehbein died in summer 2001, offensive coordinator Charlie Weis gave the then 29-year-old Burke the added responsibility of coaching the team's running backs as Weis took over quarterback coaching duties for the team's Super Bowl XXXVI-winning season.[1]
