BUFFALO, N.Y. — Vikings coach Brad Childress says defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier is scheduled to interview for the Buffalo Bills head coaching job.
In an e-mail to The Associated Press on Wednesday, Childress confirmed Frazier will meet with the Bills on Thursday. The interview will take place during the Vikings’ week off before they prepare to open the playoffs against Dallas, Green Bay or Arizona on Jan. 17.
Frazier is in his 22nd NFL season as coach and third with the Vikings. He has been credited with overseeing a stout unit that has ranked sixth in the league in yards allowed the past two seasons.
The Bills have declined comment on their search as they seek a replacement after Dick Jauron was fired in November.
