(BUFFALO, NY) —  A former University of Miami quarterback, Ken Dorsey, could be in line for the NFL head coaching job with the Carolina Panthers. Dorsey is currently the Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator and the Panthers have requested an interview, according to Ian Rapoport.  The Bills are potentially Super Bowl bound this year. Dorsey used to be the Panthers quarterbacks coach.

Brian Daboll’s offseason departure leaves Bills quarterback Josh Allen working under a new coordinator for the first time entering his fifth season in Buffalo. The good news in helping ease the transition is Allen’s familiarity with Daboll’s replacement, Ken Dorsey, who spent the past three seasons as the Bills quarterbacks coach.

Dorsey was drafted out of the University of Miami in 2003. He set a Hurricanes record with most career touchdown passes, career passing yards and career wins.

The Panthers also have requested permission to interview Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen and Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, according to reports. Steichen and Johnson also were requested by the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts.
