The Buffalo Bills moved quickly to replace head coach Sean McDermott, casting a wide net of candidates even before general manager Brandon Beane and owner Terry Pegula took questions from reporters on Wednesday. According to Albert Breer, some interviews will take place in Orchard Park and some will be in Florida.
There are noticeably no candidates from teams currently in the playoffs, as they aren’t allowed to interview until after their season is completed.
We will keep updating as names and information come in, so keep coming back.

Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady
Status: Interview completed (1/21 afternoon)
Brady has been Buffalo’s OC for two+ seasons, replacing Ken Dorsey midway through 2023. They’ve had a top 10 offense with Brady calling plays, but a lot of Bills fans think it was harder than it needed to be and want him gone. Instead, he will get a look at the top job.
He was the first candidate to interview. He interviews again with the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday 1/22.
Former New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll
Status: Interview completed (1/22 morning)
Daboll is a Western New York native and former Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator. He was the New York Giants head coach from 2022 until midway through 2025. His offenses were mid to bad with the Giants, but in Buffalo, he is one of the people who unlocked QB Josh Allen when he entered the league.
He interviewed with the Bills on Thursday and if he does not get the head coach job, could be a candidate for offensive coordinator. He also has an offer to be the Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator.
Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo
Status: Interview scheduled(1/22 afternoon)
Anarumo has been requested by most teams with a head coach opening and has been an NFL DC for eight years. He was let go by the Cincinnati Bengals after a disappointing 2024 season and spent 2025 with the Colts.
Anarumo will be in Buffalo on Thursday to meet with Bills officials. He also interviewed for the openings with the New York Giants and Tennessee Titans.
Jacksonville Jaguars offensive coordinator Grant Udinski
Status: Interview scheduled (1/25)
Udinski is a rising offensive star under Liam Coen. He just turned 30 and only has one season as an NFL coordinator. Prior to joining Coen, he was on the staff of the Minnesota Vikings with Kevin O’Connell as assistant quarterbacks coach. His resume is pretty darn thin.
Udinski has his second interview with the Cleveland Browns on Friday for their head coach job.
Washington Commanders RB coach Anthony Lynn
Status: Interview requested
Lynn is a former Bills offensive coordinator under Rex Ryan and interim head coach when Ryan was fired. A former NFL running back, he’s been an NFL coach since 2000 mostly as a position coach. Lynn served as the Los Angeles Chargers head coach from 2017-2020 where he went 33-31 with one playoff appearance.
Miami Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver
Status: Interview requested
Weaver was the Bills defensive line coach in 2013 but that predates Beane’s time in Buffalo. He spent a year as the Houston Texans defensive coordinator in 2020 and 2024 and 2025 as the Dolphins defensive coordinator.
There are certainly more that will come in. We will update this article later today. Brandon Beane and owner Terry Pegula meet the media and 10 a.m. Eastern. Please hop in the comments below to chat.
