A senior NFL insider indicated that the name generating the most interest is Brian Daboll, a Buffalo native who Josh Allen loves. The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reported that across league executives, Daboll is the familiar option repeatedly mentioned in Buffalo’s coaching-search chatter. 🧠🔎
Allen has spoken about Daboll’s impact, saying the former Bills OC was the most influential coach in his career and that he talked to him nearly every day. Daboll has echoed that sentiment, calling Allen an unbelievable player and noting that he makes Daboll a better playcaller. 🤝💬
Daboll previously served as the Bills’ offensive coordinator from 2018 to 2021, and the bond between him and Allen runs deep: they developed a strong relationship that Daboll says won’t change, wherever he’s coaching. Their dynamic helped Allen flourish during Daboll’s tenure. 🧩🤝
After leaving the Giants, Daboll has kept options open, interviewing with the Tennessee Titans for their head-coaching job and expressing interest in the Philadelphia Eagles’ offensive coordinator role. The buzz around Buffalo’s next head coach centers on Daboll, especially with Allen’s backing and the long-standing familiarity between him and the Bills. 🚀🏈
