Josh Allen on crutches during Joe Brady's introductory press conference

The Buffalo Bills introduced Joe Brady as their new head coach on Thursday afternoon. Brady had many people to thank, including his family, general manager Brandon Beane, former head coach Sean McDermott.

Brady also thanked the fans and city of Buffalo.

"Buffalo isn't just where I work," Brady said. "Buffalo is where my life changed, and there is no place I'd rather be than right here right now."

While Brady was the man of the hour, he had several players in attendance to support him, including Josh Allen, Dalton Kincaid, and Spencer Brown. And it was easy to notice that Allen was sporting a pair of crutches after he was dealing with a foot injury in the latter part of the season.

Owner Terry Pegula noted that Allen may need surgery on his foot, but he reiterated that he would be good to go for OTAs.
