The Buffalo Bills have hired Brian Daboll as offensive coordinator.

We appreciate all that he did in terms of his time and his dedication in contributing to the success we had this season," Alabama coach Nick Saban said in a statement.

Daboll will replace Rick Dennison.

Bills Fire Offensive Coordinator Rick Dennison

Jan 12, 2018 3:13 PM

The Buffalo Bills have fired offensive coordinator Rick Dennison.

Buffalo reached the playoffs this season but their offense ranked 26th in offensive DVOA.

"We're not satisfied with the whole offense, and it wasn't just about [quarterback] Tyrod [Taylor]," general manager Brandon Beane said Tuesday. "There's a lot of hands in the cookie jar, so to speak, and [coach] Sean [McDermott] and I, we're going to talk about everything, and we know we have to get better on offense, on defense, on special teams. We are far from a finished product."

Dennison joined the Bills last January after Sean McDermott replaced Rex Ryan as coach.

Yannick Ngakoue Accuses Richie Incognito Of Using Racial Slurs

Jan 8, 2018 8:35 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Yannick Ngakoue has accused Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Richie Incognito of using racial slurs during Sunday's playoff game.

Ngakoue said on Twitter that a Buffalo player wearing No. 64 was "goin[g] to come harder than some weak racist slurs." Ngakoue ended his tweet with the hashtag #Iaintjonathanmartin!

Incognito has made the Pro Bowl each of his three seasons since signing with the Bills in 2015. Buffalo gave Incognito a second chance in the NFL after the Miami Dolphins suspended him for the final eight games of the 2013 season for his role in a bullying scandal in which ex-offensive lineman Jonathan Martin was a target.
