Joe Brady has been a key piece behind the Buffalo Bills‘ success. His work as offensive coordinator has been strong, but he has also attracted interest from other teams ahead of the AFC Championship game against the Kansas City Chiefs. However, with his recent decision, there’s little concern within the franchise.

According to information from Ian Rapoport, the Bills’ offensive coordinator made a decision regarding his future with the team despite receiving an offer from the New Orleans Saints. He chose to stay with Buffalo, continuing to lead the offense, where he has already seen significant success.

It’s worth noting that he’s not the first Bills coach to receive an offer. The Saints had been persistent, seeking a second interview with Brady in an attempt to bring him to New Orleans, where they’re in dire need of help after finishing the NFL season with a 5-12 record.

Brady has not been with the Bills for long—he took over as interim offensive coordinator in 2023, but it was in 2024 that his strategy really took shape, leading to significant improvements in Buffalo’s offense. The team is now hoping to defeat the Chiefs and make it to the Super Bowl.
