Buffalo Bills defensive lineman Jordan Phillips appeared to be upset with the organization’s decision to fire head coach Sean McDermott on Monday following a tough playoff exit.
The Bills made the decision nearly two days after Buffalo lost to the Denver Broncos in overtime. It marked another season in which the Bills bowed out of the postseason amid Super Bowl expectations.

Phillips made his feelings known on Instagram.
“This is so stupid and honestly disgusting,” Phillips wrote in a post on her Instagram Stories. “The best coach I have ever met.”
Phillips joined the Bills for his third stint midway through the 2024 season. He played for the Dallas Cowboys for two games before being released and re-signing with the Bills. Phillips played in 11 games this season, but his year was cut short due to an ankle injury.
McDermott was the head coach in each of Phillips’ tenures with the Bills.

Buffalo will embark on its first head coaching search since the 2017 offseason.
“Sean has done an admirable job leading our football team over the past nine seasons,” team owner Terry Pegula said in a statement. “But I feel like we need a new structure within our leadership to give this organization the best opportunity to take our team to the next level. We owe it to our players and Bills Mafia.
“Sean helped change the mindset of this organization and was instrumental in the Bills becoming a perennial playoff team. I respect all the work, loyalty and attention to detail he showed for this team and the community. I wish Sean, Jamie and their family all the best.”
