Bills head coach Sean McDermott has signed a multi-year contract extension, the team announced on Wednesday.
McDermott, since joining the team three years ago, has transformed the team’s culture and helped lead the club to two playoff berths over three years – the first Bills head coach since Wade Phillips to do so.
Team owners Terry and Kim Pegula released this statement on the news:
"Sean's leadership on and off the field has been nothing but genuine and transparent, qualities we appreciate as owners. He is the same great person to us, the players and everyone across all our organizations. We will never forget how impressed we were during his first interview. Sean's attention to detail was apparent back then and his process driven approach has brought great stability to our organization. We are happy to extend his contract and keep him in Western New York for many years to come."
McDermott already ranks fifth in franchise history in coaching wins, entering just his fourth season.
