Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady has had a busy week, and not just because he’s preparing for a playoff game against the Ravens on Sunday night.
The Bears announced that they had interviewed Brady for their head coaching position, shortly after the Saints interviewed him for their head coaching position.
One of the realities of the coaching cycle in the NFL is that coaches who would otherwise be entirely focused on an upcoming playoff game also spend time discussing other jobs with other teams. Brady is one of several assistants preparing for this weekend’s games while also interviewing for head coaching jobs.
Brady became a star in coaching circles when he was hired as the passing game coordinator at LSU in 2019 and they quickly won the national championship with the best passing game in college football – something that could have have more to do with the presence of Joe Burrow. , Ja’Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson on this team than with Brady.
Since then, Brady spent two years as the Panthers’ offensive coordinator and two years as the Bills’ quarterbacks coach before being promoted to offensive coordinator in Buffalo.
Now, Brady is focused on two things: advancing his own career and advancing the Bills into the playoffs.
