BREAKING NFL Coaching Carousel Update! Former Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel is interviewing TODAY (January 23, 2026) for the Buffalo Bills’ vacant head coaching position, per multiple reports from Albert Breer, Adam Schefter, and more.
Just days after reportedly agreeing to become the Los Angeles Chargers’ new offensive coordinator under Jim Harbaugh — reuniting with a high-powered setup featuring Justin Herbert — McDaniel is now in serious talks to lead Josh Allen and the Bills in Buffalo. Could this offensive mastermind (Shanahan tree alum) be the perfect fit to unlock another level for Bills Mafia?
What does this mean for the Chargers OC job? If McDaniel lands the Bills gig, LA would need to pivot quickly to find a new play-caller after moving on from Greg Roman. If he doesn’t get the HC role, expect him to slide right into the Chargers’ staff as planned.
Is this a bold power move by Buffalo, a risky flip for McDaniel, or just another twist in the wild 2026 NFL coaching search? We break down the fit with Josh Allen, the AFC East rivalry angle (ex-Dolphins coach to Bills?!), and the ripple effects for Harbaugh’s Chargers rebuild.

If we let go Marty after 14-2 we should have done the same to Harbaugh and kept Minter
Daboll would be a better fit for the Bills system.
The way the Bills front office threw Sean McDermott under the bus and its dysfunction?? Maybe Brian Daboll can handle that nonsense but Mike McDaniel??
Every sports channel reported him coming here, this would be a punk move if he goes elsewhere!!!!
WTF!!!! everyone is in a FULL Karen PANIC, if he signs with the Bills he hasn't it's not done until ink is on paper. Deball still available.
Lets stop playing games. We shouldnt wait, get Daboll now.
No spanos get the check book out. This is the problem with the chargers you get what you pay for. 4:21 I know what you're thinking but the cold, new York media, bills personal. But money talks that's it spanos.
We about to Charger the coaching search 😂😂😂😂
I’m not mad at mcdaniels it’s just dumb for the chargers not to still be interviewing other o.c.s
McDonald's is gonna take it. It's a way bigger payday, with a stud QB and monster at seasoned RB!
Problem is everyone sees the the harvester jinxed! Chargering! Hahahaha
McDaniel is a dirty rat! Get Brian Daboll!
So you think it's okay for the Chargers to fully commit to this guy and stop interviewing other guys while McDaniel is waiting it out not fully committed, keeping his options open?
Losing minter and mike 😂 yea we cooked
If I was Joe I'd tell Mike to take a long walk off of a short bridge!! Go to the Bills MFER!! I'd rather Daboll anyway !!
Leverage is what's going on. In my opinion Chargers should move on immediately and secure an offensive coordinator. McDaniel is belittling the brand at this point not a good look at all. The Chargers OC job is not a placeholder fall back option. Save the money and headaches, move on. ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡
McDaniel will not fit with the bills, the fans already don't like him because of the trolling incident, he's obviously not going to pass up an opportunity and just stick with the chargers
I don’t trust McDaniel. I’m assuming he had a verbal/handshake agreement with the Chargers, yet still agreed to meet with the Bill.
hope mcdaniel freezes his ass off in buffalo today 😂 come back to LA man
Holyshit 🤦♂️
The Chargers should hire Joe Brady if that happens. The Bills offense looked great. Josh was the MVP with Joe at OC.
A low-key good higher would be Mike Kafka.
Mcdaniels wife is from La relax happy wife happy life im.pretty sure he signs in La soon ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️but kind of a dick move wxpected from this guy but hes still a great mind tbat can greatly benefit us
Chargering
As a Bills fan, i don't love it. I know Miami is a really tough place to coach, but I still struggle to see him as anything but an OC
This makes Jesse Minter leaving even harder to take.
Let’s play the same game and start interviewing other prospects can’t wait for him to say see you not interested
We need stability on of other wise we won’t get anywhere
McD is priority one, but there are really solid options. Think Steichen Justin's first year.
He probably has a contingency similar to flores
Best news ever. McDaniel is a weak little suck. Please let the Bills hire him…
We prefer Dabol but we need one of them
It’s a ready to win now
Nothing, absolutely NOTHING in my over 30yrs as a Chargers life investor (i.e. fan) is ever signed, and sealed at the Chargers!! Harbaugh as a HC was a HUGE thing at the "last moment". So gettin all hyped over McDaniels should not be a thing, as we lost Minter (a typical "Chargering" thing again). Rumors about 5 top defense players looking to go to/trade to Baltimore. We got more things to Charger about then McDaniels! So Prayers over Hyping is the thing going forward for 2026.
They Chargered another great opportunity!!!
Aww helll nawwww this is wild! I thought it was a done deal! Still Daboll would be super legit!
No better way to stick it to Miami than to coach a division rival.
