The Charlotte-to-Buffalo pipeline<\/a>\u2014or perhaps in this case, the Charlotte-to-Buffalo-to-Buffalo pipeline\u2014is still alive and well.<\/p>\n

According to multiple reports from Tuesday morning, the Buffalo Bills<\/a> are expected to hire Joe Brady as their new head coach. Brady served as the offensive coordinator for the Carolina Panthers<\/a> in 2020 and most of 2021.<\/p>\n

Carolina hired Brady to serve as the offensive play-caller under head coach Matt Rhule. The Panthers, in his first season there, ranked 21st in yards per game and 24th in points per game.<\/p>\n

He would not last through the next campaign, as Rhule made the decision to part ways<\/a> with Brady 12 games into the 2021 season. Carolina, at the time of his dismissal, ranked 28th in yards and 23rd in points.<\/p>\n

Buffalo would then bring Brady on as their quarterbacks coach in 2022. He’d later become the full-time offensive coordinator in 2024.<\/p>\n

Brady will replace former Bills head coach Sean McDermott, who lasted nine seasons in Buffalo. McDermott, before that tenure, was Carolina’s defensive coordinator from 2011 to 2016.<\/p>\n
