Frazier, who will turn 64 in April, has been Buffalo’s defensive play-caller for the past six seasons working under head coach Sean McDermott. No replacement defensive play-caller has yet been named by the Bills. The team did say, nebulously, that Frazier plans to return for the 2024 season, but no hard claims were made about where he’d be coaching.
