Sean McDermott plans to keep coaching, with seven other head-coaching jobs available

Our Summary

Sean McDermott, recently dismissed as head coach of the Buffalo Bills, intends to continue his coaching career. McDermott, who achieved an impressive 98-50 regular-season record and reached the playoffs in eight of his nine seasons with the Bills, is now a potential candidate for several head coaching vacancies across the NFL. Teams such as the Cardinals, Ravens, Browns, Raiders, Dolphins, Steelers, and Titans are currently seeking new head coaches. Among these openings, McDermott is considered a strong contender for the Steelers' position, trailing only Rams defensive coordinator Chris Shula in current betting odds. Despite his termination in Buffalo, McDermott's successful track record could make him a top choice for teams looking to fill their head coaching roles.
