When Joe Brady was promoted from offensive coordinator to head coach in Buffalo this year, he decided to go outside the organization for the key assistant positions on his new offensive staff. Bills quarterback Josh Allen is liking what he\u2019s seeing.<\/p>\n
Bo Hardegree is the Bills\u2019 new quarterbacks coach, and Allen says he\u2019s getting a lot out of his time with Hardegree this offseason.<\/p>\n
\u201cA lot of meeting time, that\u2019s what OTAs is for, you\u2019re re-installing the playbook,\u201d Allen said of his interactions with Hardegree. \u201cIt may be the same type of playbook that I\u2019ve been in for the last eight years, but a lot of different nuance this year. He brings a lot of knowledge from his previous stops in the league. He\u2019s got a lot of experience, and to be able to talk through different concepts, different defenses, how he sees it and how he conveys it to us. He\u2019s doing a great job in our room and we\u2019re lucky to have him.\u201d<\/p>\n
The 41-year-old Hardegree was a college quarterback at Tennessee but barely played for the Volunteers. Since college, however, he has coached all over the place, at Duke and LSU and then with the Broncos, Bears, Dolphins, Jets, Patriots, Raiders and Titans. Brady will keep the Bills\u2019 offense the same in many respects, but he hired an offensive coordinator from the outside in Pete Carmichael, and brought in Hardegree from the outside as well, and Allen thinks there will be some fresh air in the offense this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When Joe Brady was promoted from offensive coordinator to head coach in Buffalo this year, he decided to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":730943,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-730942","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/730942","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=730942"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/730942\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/730943"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=730942"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=730942"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=730942"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
