Bills fire Sean McDermott

Our Summary

The Buffalo Bills have fired head coach Sean McDermott, as confirmed by multiple reports. This decision follows the team's 33-30 overtime loss to the Denver Broncos in the divisional round of the playoffs. McDermott, who led the Bills for nine seasons with a record of 98-50, guided the team to the playoffs eight times but failed to reach the Super Bowl. This latest coaching change marks the 10th opening since the start of the 2025 season. McDermott's availability could make him a strong candidate for the seven other coaching vacancies currently in the NFL.
