The Buffalo Bills are hiring Pete Carmichael as the team's new offensive coordinator, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network and The Insiders. The move adds a veteran voice to the Buffalo coaching staff as the franchise looks to refine its high-powered offense.
The hiring facilitates a notable reunion between Carmichael and Joe Brady. Brady, who served as the Bills' interim offensive coordinator before being promoted, previously worked on Carmichael’s staff for two seasons. Carmichael is best known for his extensive 15-year tenure as an offensive coordinator, during which he oversaw some of the league's most productive units.
Carmichael heads to Buffalo after spending the last two seasons with the Denver Broncos. His deep experience in offensive play-design and his existing relationship with Brady are expected to be key assets as the Bills continue to build around quarterback Josh Allen. The team has not yet released a formal statement regarding the specific structure of the coaching hierarchy following this addition.
