ORCHARD PARK — Trace McSorley, a former Penn State star quarterback, has begun his NFL coaching career with the Buffalo Bills. Despite the grueling schedule he faces, marked by early morning workouts and late nights, McSorley is dedicated to his new role. Since being hired as an offensive assistant in February, his primary responsibilities have included breaking down film and working closely with the Bills' wide receivers coach.
McSorley's decision to join the Bills was influenced by several factors, including his wife's alma mater, the opportunity to solely focus on football, and the coaching style of Joe Brady, a former Penn State assistant. Brady's meticulous attention to detail and ability to instill confidence in his players resonated with McSorley, inspiring him to adopt a similar coaching philosophy.
Although McSorley's playing career in the NFL was brief, his time with Brady at Penn State and the respect he holds for Brady's leadership have set the stage for his coaching journey.
