Bills' Joe Brady Walks Back Interception Remark as Josh Allen Eyes OTAs After Foot Surgery

The new head coach frames the comment as an effort to show the defense he leads the entire roster.

Overview

  • Brady told The Pat McAfee Show he couldn’t wait for a practice where Josh Allen throws an interception so he could celebrate with the defense.
  • On the Fitz & Whit podcast, Brady said he regretted the comment and acknowledged an Allen pick would actually anger him.
  • Brady, promoted after Sean McDermott’s firing, says he will keep calling plays but wants players to view him as the team’s head coach, not just an offensive coach.
  • Allen underwent surgery in Birmingham on a broken fifth metatarsal, appeared on crutches with a walking boot, and will miss the Pro Bowl.
  • Allen described the procedure as not major and said he expects to be ready for Organized Team Activities after injuring the foot in Week 16 and playing through the playoffs.
