Gregory Alexander Van Pelt (born May 1, 1970) is an American professional football coach and former quarterback who is the offensive coordinator for the New England Patriots of the National Football League (NFL). He played in the NFL primarily with the Buffalo Bills. Van Pelt previously served as an assistant coach for the Bills, Cincinnati Bengals, Green Bay Packers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Cleveland Browns.

Playing career

College

Van Pelt attended the University of Pittsburgh, where he was a 4-year starting quarterback for the Panthers. When he graduated, Van Pelt broke school career passing records previously set by Dan Marino, holding records for most career passing yards, completions, and attempts in Pitt history.[1] His single-season mark of 3,163 passing yards in 1992 was broken in 2003 by Rod Rutherford.

  • 1989: 192/347 for 2,881 yards with 17 touchdowns vs 12 interceptions. Ran for 4 touchdowns.
  • 1990: 201/351 for 2,427 yards with 14 touchdowns vs 17 interceptions. Ran for 2 touchdowns.
  • 1991: 227/398 for 2,796 yards with 15 touchdowns vs 14 interceptions. Ran for 1 touchdown.
  • 1992: 245/407 for 3,163 yards with 20 touchdowns vs 17 interceptions.

Professional

Van Pelt was an eighth round draft pick of his hometown franchise Pittsburgh Steelers, but was released during training camp.[2] Van Pelt spent three games with the Kansas City Chiefs late in the 1993 NFL season following a hamstring injury to Joe Montana. He was re-signed by the Chiefs prior to the 1994 NFL season, but was released during training camp. He was signed by the Buffalo Bills later in the 1994 season following a knee injury sustained by Jim Kelly and spent the remainder of his career as a backup with the Bills.[3]

Van Pelt's first NFL win as a starter would come on November 2, 1997, against Dan Marino and the Miami Dolphins. In 2001, he started eight games, going 2–6, and playing well enough to justify a contract extension that would allow the Bills to release failed Doug Flutie successor Rob Johnson. Van Pelt would not start any games after 2001 due to a Bills trade with the New England Patriots for Drew Bledsoe, who became the full-time starting quarterback. Van Pelt remained with the team as Bledsoe's backup for the next two seasons before retiring.

In his eleven-year career, Van Pelt totaled 16 touchdowns and 24 interceptions on 477 pass attempts in 31 career appearances and 11 starts.[4]

Broadcasting career

After retiring from football in 2004, Van Pelt was John Murphy's partner on Bills Radio Network broadcasts. He did color commentary for the radio broadcast of all Bills games during the 2004 season.[5]

Coaching career

Frankfurt Galaxy

Van Pelt began his coaching career in 2005 as the quarterbacks coach for the Frankfurt Galaxy of NFL Europe, the NFL's developmental league, where he was also responsible for all offensive play calling.[6]

University at Buffalo

After the end of the NFL Europe season, Van Pelt returned to Buffalo, spending the 2005 college football season as a volunteer quarterbacks coach for the University at Buffalo.[7]

Buffalo Bills

On February 13, 2006, Van Pelt returned to the Bills, this time being hired by head coach Dick Jauron as an offensive quality control coach. On January 16, 2008, the Bills promoted him to quarterbacks coach. On September 4, 2009, he was promoted again to offensive coordinator after Turk Schonert was abruptly fired just 10 days prior to the season opener.[8]

On January 4, 2010, Van Pelt, along with the rest of the Bills coaching staff, was fired following a 6–10 season.[9]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Van Pelt was hired by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as the quarterbacks coach on February 1, 2010.[10] When Buccaneers head coach Raheem Morris was fired on January 2, 2012, the whole staff was let go as well.

Green Bay Packers

Van Pelt was hired by the Packers as the running backs coach, reuniting him with his longtime friend, head coach Mike McCarthy, on February 13, 2012.[11] On February 7, 2014, Van Pelt was promoted to quarterbacks coach. He left the team when his contract expired on January 3, 2018.[12]

Cincinnati Bengals

On January 12, 2018, Van Pelt was hired by the Cincinnati Bengals as their quarterbacks coach.[13]

Cleveland Browns

On January 29, 2020, Van Pelt was hired by the Cleveland Browns as their offensive coordinator under head coach Kevin Stefanski.[14] Stefanski missed the team's wild card playoff game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on January 10, 2021, and Van Pelt took over as offensive play caller for the game.[15]

On February 26, 2023, Van Pelt added the role of quarterbacks coach to his title.[16]

On January 17, 2024, Van Pelt was fired by the Browns following the team's 45–14 loss to the Houston Texans in the AFC playoffs.[17]

New England Patriots

On February 1, 2024, Van Pelt was named the new offensive coordinator for the New England Patriots.[18]

Van Pelt lives in Cleveland, Ohio with his wife Brooke and their three children.[19]
