He was the Bills\u2019 offensive coordinator for four years (2018-2021) prior to leaving for the Giants and is widely loved in Buffalo. Daboll is a native of the area, growing up in Hamburg, N.Y. and stayed in Western New York to attend college at the University of Rochester.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Daboll is incredibly familiar with the Bills\u2019 organization and the roster, particularly quarterback Josh Allen. As an offensive-minded coach, Daboll would provide a significant contrast to the defensive-minded McDermott.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Daboll has received significant interest around the NFL, and also interviewed for the Tennessee Titans\u2019 head coaching vacancy. While the Titans ultimately hired Robert Saleh, they\u2019re still pursuing Daboll for their offensive coordinator position. Daboll has also interviewed for the Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator opening.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Dianna Russinni of <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/diannarussini.bsky.social\/post\/3mcwwbt7bg22s\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Athletic reports that<\/a> while Daboll very much wants to be the Bills\u2019 next head coach, he will take the Titans\u2019 offensive coordinator opening to coach Cam Ward if he doesn\u2019t get the Bills\u2019 job.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Daboll will have stiff competition for the Bills\u2019 head coaching job, and the list currently includes:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If fans thought that former New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll would be out of work for&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":694160,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2067],"tags":[7,519,1917,56,82078,1207,2321,2469,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-694159","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york-giants","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-giants","10":"tag-new-york","11":"tag-new-york-giants","12":"tag-new-york-giants-discussion","13":"tag-new-york-giants-news","14":"tag-newyork","15":"tag-newyorkgiants","16":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115934095963410035","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/694159","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=694159"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/694159\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/694160"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=694159"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=694159"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=694159"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
