USAT: Bills Wire

The Buffalo Bills will have a brand new coaching staff in terms of those relating to quarterbacks next season. - Earlier this week, lead QB coach Ken Dorsey was promoted to offensive coordinator. Dorsey replaced Brian Daboll, who was hired as the New York Giants’ head coach. - Daboll has now taken one of the top potential candidates to fill Dorsey’s old job with him. According to The Athletic, the Giants have hired Sea Tierney as their quarterbacks coach. - Tierney was previously Buffalo’s assistant QB coach, which almost automatically made him a candidate to replace Dorsey as the lead QB coach. While it’s unknown how much interest the Bills had in promoting Tierney, it’s now off the table. He’ll be in New York. - Tierney moving from the Bills to the Giants makes him the second reported coach to move from Buffalo to New York. The first was offensive line coach Bobby Johnson, who was hired in that same role with the G-Men earlier this week. - Johnson’s hiring was a lateral move, but his contract was up with the Bills so he was allowed to make that switch. Tierney is taking a promotion in New York, so his move is allowed regardless of contract status. - While Tierney has been with the Bills since 2018, he had worked with Daboll for even longer. - Tierney essentially came to Buffalo in a package deal in 2018 as Daboll convinced him to head to the Bills when he was hired as offensive coordinator. The two were previously employed at the University of Alabama. - Stay tuned to Bills Wire throughout the winter as we will provide all updates regarding Buffalo assistants and front-office members that are connected to other NFL teams. - - RelatedSUPER LIST: Ranking every Super Bowl from best to worstBills WR Gabriel Davis on Ken Dorsey promotion: 'I love Dorse'WATCH: Bills QB Josh Allen praises newly promoted offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Bills Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Bills Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
