“I love you (Jamie). Our late night dog walks, carpools and limo sales with the kids will always have a special place in my heart. You are truly a unique human being and I am so lucky our paths crossed.”

Mitch Trubisky signed a two-year, $5.25 million contract in 2024 to rejoin the Bills in his second stint with the team. His first season with the Bills was in 2021 after four seasons with the Chicago Bears.

The 31-year-old has seen limited action during his three seasons with the Bills with Josh Allen at the helm, but has played well when called upon. In Week 18 against the New York Jets, although he technically did not start because Allen took the first snap to preserve his early streak, Trubisky played the rest of the game and performed well.

In the Bills’ 35-8 victory over the Jets, Trubisky completed 22 of his 29 passes for 259 yards and four touchdowns. He is a free agent this offseason.

Bills owner Terry Pegula told reporters Wednesday that his decision to fire McDermott was based on the results of the team’s 33-30 overtime loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday.

McDermott spent nine seasons with the Bills and went 98-50 with a 16-8 playoff record, but failed to lead the team to a Super Bowl.
