Jacobs also returned two kicks in this game despite never returning a kick in an NFL game before, and his first attempt saw him fumble with the ball fortunately landing in the hands of a Packers’ special-teamer. The tailback found very little room in the run game, and the word “plod” would be an accurate descriptor for much of the contest. While he did rush for 13 touchdowns in 2025, he also was held to a 4.0 average on his 234 carries (929 yards). The 27-year-old should be back with Green Bay in 2025, and he’ll open the year as a low-end RB1 thanks to his knack for finding the end zone.

Campanile, after coaching one of the league’s best defenses in 2025, seems to be the favorite for the Arizona head coaching job after the team parted ways with Jonathan Gannon. Campanile has interviewed with a numbers of teams, including the Ravens and Dolphins. Jacksonville in 2025 ranked second in takeaways and allowed the NFL’s third lowest rushing success rate and the 11th lowest drop back success rate.

Pegula during a press conference Wednesday absolved general manager Brandon Beane of responsibility for the sorry state of the team’s wideout room. Referring to the drafting of Coleman in 2024, Pegula said Beane “has taken, for some reason, heat about it, and I’m here to say a word about it.” Pegula said former head coach Sean McDermott’s wide receivers coaches advocated for taking Coleman, who has been an unmitigated bust over the past two seasons. Pegula added that he fired McDermott — among the league’s most successful coaches over the past decade — based on the Bills’ Divisional Round loss to the Broncos.

Daboll is reportedly prioritizing the Buffalo job after serving as the team’s offensive coordinator from 2018 to 2021. If the Bills pass him over, Russini said Daboll will likely join Robert Saleh as Tennessee’s offensive coordinator. Daboll would be tasked with helping Cam Ward become an NFL-viable starter quarterback after a disastrous rookie season in which he threw 15 touchdowns and seven picks over 17 games. Ward was among the most inaccurate passers in the league.

Weaver is suddenly a popular name among teams looking to fill head coaching jobs in the coming days and weeks. Weaver, Miami’s defensive coordinator over the past two seasons, has talked to the Ravens and Steelers about their head coaching vacancies and will now enter the fray as Buffalo’s potential top guy after the team fired Sean McDermott. The Bills are also interviewing former Giants head coach Brian Daboll and Jaguars OC Grant Udinsky. Weaver’s Miami defense over the past two seasons has given up the league’s ninth highest EPA per play and seventh highest offensive success rate.

Daboll served as Buffalo’s offensive coordinator from 2018 to 2021 before landing the Giants head coaching job. Daboll’s Bills offense was top-five in both yards and points in both 2020 and 2021 as the team shifted to a more pass-first offense with Josh Allen under center. Daboll’s success with Allen could land him the top job in the coming days and weeks as the Bills interview potential replacements for Sean McDermott. That includes 30-year-old Jacksonville OC Grant Udinski and Colts DC Lou Anarumo.

Udinski, 30, is just a few months older than Bills QB Josh Allen and would represent a massive shift for Buffalo after the team fired longtime defense-oriented head coach Sean McDermott, one of the most successful coaches in the NFL over the past decade. Udinski has interviewed for the Browns head coaching job after a 2025 season in which he helped make Jacksonville’s offense one of the most productive in football. Udinski would make for an interesting hire if the Bills are ready to get back to the pass-first approach that made them lethal in 2020 and 2021.

Sullivan said the goal in the coming years is to put together a roster of players who can win in Buffalo, New York, and New England in the second half of the season. The Dolphins, practicing and living in Miami, have traditionally been a miserable cold-weather team, leading to a number of late-season collapses going back to the Marino era. Sullivan’s comments echo newly hired head coach Jeff Sullivan, who reportedly wants to ditch the team’s emphasis on speed for size and physicality. “Our division runs through Buffalo and New England and New York, cold-weather places,” Sullivan said. “There’s a saying in our business, fast gets slow but big doesn’t get small. We’re not going to sacrifice speed and explosion and skill for a bunch of big stiff guys, but we’re going to have substance to us at all levels of our team. At corner, at receiver, at running back, and certainly up front. It starts with the quarterback, and then we’ll build this team from the inside out. We’ve got to be dominant on the offensive line, dominant on the defensive line.”

Anarumo, 59, is once again a popular head coaching candidate, landing interviews with the Titans and Giants before those teams filled their head coaching spots with Robert Saleh and John Harbaugh, respectively. Buffalo is seeking a new head coach after firing Sean McDernmott, one of the league’s winningest coaches over the past decade. The Colts under Anarumo in 2025 finished 23rd in yards allowed and 21st in points allowed, with their best finish in any category being allowing only 3.9 rushing yards per attempt.

McClendon has been with the Bucs for the past two seasons, helping develop the likes of Jalen McMillan and Emeka Egbuka in the wide receiver room, alongside vets Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. The Falcons are conducting offensive coordinator interviews under new head coach Kevin Stefanski. McClendon will interview with the chance to develop Drake London and Bijan Robinson’s offense.

Weidl spent the last four seasons as the Steelers’ assistant general manager. According to Kaboly, he “is a well-respected personnel evaluator around league circles.” Having spent 27 years in the NFL, Weidl brings experience to a Falcons front office led by President of Football Matt Ryan. The Falcons will interview Weidl for general manager after the team hired Kevin Stefanski as its new head coach. With that role filled, the general manager candidate interviews will come quicker for a potential hire soon.
