Bills Move On

Sean McDermott has been fired as head coach of the Buffalo Bills, the team announced Monday.

The 51-year-old McDermott was hired in 2017 and led the Bills to five AFC East division titles and eight playoff appearances in nine seasons.

While McDermott will exit the franchise, general manager Brandon Beane got a promotion, and will now be President of Football Operations. He'll lead the search for a new coach.

"Sean has done an admiral [sic] job of leading our football team for the past 9 seasons," owner Terry Pegula said in a statement. "But I feel we are in need of a new structure within our leadership to give this organization the best opportunity to take our team to the next level."
