John Fox, the Bears’ head coach from 2015-17, will be part of this year’s Bills staff.

New Bills head coach Joe Brady hired Fox as a senior assistant coach Friday. Fox, 71, worked with new Bills quarterbacks coach Bo Hardegree and special teams coordinator Jeff Rodgers during his three-year stint with the Bears.

When the Bears hired Fox, he was one of just six men to lead two different teams — the Panthers and Broncos — to the Super Bowl. The Bears fired Fox at the end of the 2017 season after he posted a 14-34 record as head coach. Fox didn’t coach again until 2022, when he was named a senior defensive assistant for the Colts. He held the same job with the Lions the next year.

Brady has no previous experience with Fox. The 36-year-old Brady was hired to replace Sean McDermott, who was fired after a playoff loss to the Broncos in January and despite the fact he posted a 12-5 record in 2024. In nine years with the Bills, McDermott went 98-50 in the regular season and 8-8 in the playoffs.
