Daboll returned to the New England Patriots in 2013. He served as the tight ends' coach from 2013 to 2016 and coached Pro Bowl tight end, Rob Gronkowski. The Patriots won two Super Bowls during this time.

In February 2017, Daboll announced he would be returning to college football as the offensive coordinator for the Alabama Crimson Tide.

For his work, Daboll won the Associated Press NFL Assistant Coach of the Year Award.

In January 2022, Daboll was hired as the New York Giants 20^th head coach. His debut as head coach came in a 21-20 victory over the Tennessee Titans.
