Chan Gailey headed to Buffalo

Former Georgia Tech coach Chan Gailey has emerged as the front-runner for the Buffalo Bills head coaching vacancy, FoxSports.com’s Jay Glazer reports.

The 57-year-old Gailey interviewed with the Bills, who haven’t made the playoffs since 1999, last week and he is expected to meet with team owner Ralph Wilson and GM Buddy Nix again this week. “As long as talks don’t break down, Gailey is expected to be hired as the Bills head coach within the next 24-48 hours,” Glazer wrote.

Gailey was 44-33 in six seasons with Georgia Tech. Kansas City named him offensive coordinator in 2008 but he was fired after the Chiefs brought in a new head coach prior to the 2009 season.

Gailey was a well-regarded offensive assistant with Denver and Pittsburgh before being named Dallas’ head coach in 1998. He led the Cowboys to the playoffs twice but was fired following a lackluster 8-8 campaign in 1999.
