The Buffalo Bills have fired coach Dick Jauron after directing the team to a 3-6 record.
Defensive coordinator Perry Fewell is expected to become the Bills' interim head coach, a Bills source told NFL.com's Vic Carucci. The team said Jauron's replacement would be announced later. Jauron's successor is expected to come from the current staff and be on an interim basis only.
"I am announcing today that I am relieving Dick Jauron from his duties as our head coach, effective immediately," Bills owner Ralph Wilson said in a statement. "I have tremendous respect for Dick and thank him for all of his efforts during these past four years. While this was a very difficult decision, I felt that it is one that needed to be made at this time for the best interest of our team. We will now focus on moving forward and preparing for our game this week in Jacksonville."
If you wanted any reason to back the Jags on Sunday, this is it:
"Bills interim head coach Perry Fewell confirmed what was suspected for Sundays game.
Ryan Fitzpatrick will start at quarterback at Jacksonville."
That's from their official website.
