Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady (35) told the New Orleans Saints on Saturday that he will be staying put despite being offered a second interview.

The New Orleans Saints are now the only team currently without a head coach and the search just got that much more stressful after Brady decided to stay with the Bills

Other teams Brady interviewed for included the Chicago Bears, who hired Detroit Lions OC Ben Johnson as their head coach, and the New York Jets, who hired Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glen as their head coach. 

In just his first season as the team's offensive coordinator, the Bills' offence ranked 10th overall and were second in points per game. Brady worked the previous two years as the team's quarterback coach. 

However, Brady technically started as the OC during the 2023 season after the team fired former offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey after 10 games. Following Brady's promotion, the offence eventually turned over a new leaf and began to flourish, making way for his full-time position this past season.

Now, without any more distraction, Brady and the Bills are raring to go tomorrow in the AFC Championship game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
