ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -Marv Levy, the cerebral coach who led the Buffalo Bills to an unprecedented four straight Super Bowls but couldn’t revive a struggling franchise, told the team Monday he would not return as the Bills’ general manager.
Bills safety George Wilson told The Associated Press that the 82-year-old Levy opened the team’s wrap-up meeting with a five-minute speech during which he said he won’t return as GM.
“He’s not stepping down,” Wilson said. “He’s stepping out and moving on in his career.”
Wilson said Levy told players he was content with where the Bills are after his two-year tenure as GM.
The Bills finished the season 7-9 after losing Sunday to Philadelphia, 17-9. They failed to make the playoffs for an eighth straight year, the longest drought in franchise history.
