NFL Trade Rumors
Bills HC Joe Brady said he was shocked by the firing of former HC Sean McDermott and assured reporters he wasn’t waiting on McDermott’s downfall to become the head coach in Buffalo.
“I didn’t see that and think, ‘I want to be the head coach.’ I was broken,” Brady said on the Shout Buffalo Bills Podcast. “I was broken for a guy that I worked for. I was also broken for the rest of the coaching staff that is sitting there, like, we’re all out of jobs right now. There was a lot of emotion going on.”
“I’m only in Buffalo because of Sean and the opportunities that he gave me,” Brady added. “This organization is in a much better spot than when he took it over. I’m not walking into the same situation that he’s walking into, and there’s so much good that comes from that,” Brady said. “Sean was an extremely successful head football coach.

That’s another thing that I do look for going into the season. That’s just studying more, staying after practice more and just being a better teammate.”
“For him [Sherwood] to say that and what I know about what we’ve talked about … for him to do the things that he’s been doing this offseason to get himself into a position to where listen, I want to be one of the top linebackers,” Glenn noted. “The way these dudes are going about their business in all three phases has been unbelievable for the most part, and listen, I support that player. I think with Demario Davis being next to him, that’s going to help him out a lot because he’s still a young player and he is a player that came from being a safety to being a linebacker. So having somebody that’s been in this league for a long time as Demario sitting right beside him, it could only help him. Any player that’s self-aware and will critique themselves like that on a year-to-year basis, always good.”
“The emphasis this year is details, so again, that’s why I want to focus on that this year, but you know, he’s very adamant on what he wants this year,” Sherwood said of Glenn. *“And I feel like the practices that we strung together, you could tell that we’ve...
