Multiple sources use the word “bizarre” in recalling how McDermott viewed the relationship between assistant coaches and their players. He appeared jealous.
The Bills receivers loved Chad Hall so much that they bought him a truck for Christmas in 2020. An objectively touching moment that Isaiah McKenzie shared via Instagram.
But Sean McDermott? Oh boy. Sean McDermott was not pleased. One source described this as “a dark day at One Bills Drive.”
Said one assistant: “I thought it was cool as shit. And he made it into the biggest negative ever. That’s him. He couldn’t take that. He couldn’t handle that. He couldn’t let that be. He couldn’t let that stand. And there’s cases of that more so on the offensive side of the ball than the defensive side. He has zero relationship with the offensive players. Zero. None. Absolutely zero. He’s insecure. He wants the relationship that he can’t have with the players. Because he’s not physically, mentally, or socially able to.”

So this one is the part that my mind keeps going back to even though it's pretty unclear what exactly McDermott did to shit all over it. Just the idea that one of your assistant coaches, who was hired by you, has such a great relationship with a position group that is widely considered successful. And that's...a negative? Sounds like an actual pocket of good culture and positivity in this uptight shitty organization you run. Better squash it quick.
