Buffalo Bills fire offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey, Joe Brady to assume interim duties
The Buffalo Bills have fired offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey following the team’s 24-22 loss to the Denver Broncos on Monday Night Football, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter. Filling in as his interim replacement will be former LSU passing game coordinator and current Bills QB coach Joe Brady.
After the Bills took a 22-21 lead with under two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, Russell Wilson and Co. marched down the field and into field goal range with a chance to win the game. All that was needed was for Wil Lutz to nail the game-winning field goal.
Unfortunately for the Broncos, Lutz’s attempt went wide right. Buffalo had escaped with a victory — until they saw the flag. Buffalo bailed Denver out, as its defense had 12 men on the field. Suddenly, Lutz had another chance at redemption. He wouldn’t miss the second time, putting the 36-yard attempt through the uprights for the walk-off win.
Bills quarterback Josh Allen threw two interceptions to begin the game, while wide receiver Stefon Diggs had his least productive game of the season with just three catches for 34 yards.
Bills move on from offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey
Buffalo is now 5-5 on the season following one-score losses to the Bengals and Broncos. In the last six weeks, they’ve lost four of six games by less than a touchdown, including losses to the Jaguars and Buccaneers.
Dorsey has been the offensive coordinator for the Bills for two seasons after receiving a promotion in February of 2022. He was previously the passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach, beginning in 2019.

Trevon Diggs encourages brother to get out of Buffalo
The Buffalo Bills were one penalty away from beating the Denver Broncos on Monday night but the cookie crumbled in favor of the visiting team. The 24-22 loss, which brought the Bills to 5-5, and the way that it occurred had Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs advocating for change. Specifically, the injured DB tweeted about getting No. 14 (his brother, Stefon Diggs) out of Buffalo.
It’s not the first time the younger Diggs brother has called for Stefon to make an exit from the Bills. At the beginning of the season, Trevon posted on X (formerly Twitter), “Tuh! They turn on you so quick. Gotta get bro somewhere safe,” after a reporter was heard on a hot mic criticizing his interactions with the media.
The former Maryland star hasn’t had a 100-yard receiving game since mid-October against the Giants.
“He had what? Three catches last night? In a game they ended up losing,” former coach Jeff Saturday said on Get Up on Tuesday morning. “I’m just telling you, I’ve been in the huddle and it gets real frosty. Really frosty, all of a sudden it’s chilly. The receiver doesn’t want to talk to the QB, the QB doesn’t want to talk to the receiver. Everybody’s upset. Then you win, and everybody loves each other.”
