The 2026 season will be the Buffalo Bills' 57th in the National Football League (NFL), their 67th overall, their 12th full season under the ownership of Terry and Kim Pegula, their tenth under GM Brandon Beane and their first with Joe Brady as head coach. This will be their first season since 2016 without longtime head coach Sean McDermott, as he was fired on January 19, 2026, following their defeat in the Divisional round of the 2025 season on January 17th.[1][2] The Bills will seek to improve upon their 12–5 record from the previous season, reclaim the AFC East title, and achieve their eighth straight winning season.
It is expected to be the Bills' first season playing their home games at Highmark Stadium, replacing the old previous stadium, also named Highmark Stadium, which will be demolished following the season.[3]
