Sean McDermott is now out of a job after the Buffalo Bills fired him on Monday, but he might not be out of one for long.
Several reports revealed that McDermott is getting the boot from the Bills after nine seasons, but general manager Brandon Beane will remain.
When it comes to his future plans, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that McDermott wants to keep coaching and he could draw interest in this head-coach hiring cycle.
"Former Bills HC Sean McDermott could well emerge as a head coaching candidate for some teams that now have an opening," Schefter reported. "McDermott told his staff today that he intends to continue coaching."
McDermott's ouster is a result of his inability to get over the hump to a Super Bowl over his nine seasons.
But putting that aside, McDermott also posted a 98-50 (.662) win percentage and helped turn the Bills into a perennial Super Bowl contender.
That resume should interest teams in the need for a new head coach, whether that be this year or next.
At the very least, McDermott will likely land a defensive coordinator job at some point, which he can use as a springboard to another head-coach gig.
