ESPN update:Are the Bills in danger of losing Coach Brady?
Are the Bills in danger of losing Coach Brady?
The Buffalo Bills understand how the coaching carousel works. The more successful a team is, the more likely other organizations will want to discover their secrets. That means that many top assistants in firms will be poached for their top positions. Buffalo understands this. They’ve lost an assistant general manager and a head coach previously. As the 2024 season progresses, it’s evident that another of Sean McDermott’s assistants will be poached in the coming months. Joe Brady, the offensive play-caller.
According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, it’s also not surprising. “Still one of the NFL’s youngest coordinators, Brady first appeared on this list in 2020, after he’d parlayed a national title run with the Joe Burrow-led LSU Tigers into the Panthers’ offensive coordinator job,” according to Pelissero. “In January 2021, he had five head coaching interviews. Carolina suffered a setback when Matt Rhule unexpectedly fired Brady in December 2021.
But Brady is a bright offensive mind who has made the most of a second NFL play-calling opportunity in Buffalo, starting on an interim basis last fall.”
Brady is just 35 years old. That is incredibly youthful in comparison to other play-callers in the league. He replaced the floundering Ken Dorsey midway through the 2023 season and hasn’t looked back. It would not come as a surprise if the Bills’ offensive coordinator left for a head coaching position. And it would put Buffalo back on their feet offensively.
