The Buffalo Bills’ special-teams unit took a step backwards last season, leading to the dismissal of longtime special-teams coordinator Danny Crossman at the conclusion of the 2018 NFL season. Crossman had served in that role for three different head coaches, as he initially was hired by Doug Marrone in 2013.
With a change at the special-teams coordinator spot, it would seem to follow that a turnover in special-teams personnel would follow; however, that doesn’t appear to be the case with Buffalo. Of the eleven players who led the squad in special-teams snaps last season, eight remain with the team—only Andre Holmes, Logan Thomas, and Ramon Humber have been replaced.
