Marrone: Contingencies in place if Pettine leaves

Jeff Hafley was added to the Buffalo Bills coaching staff a week ago, previously working under Greg Schiano in Tampa Bay as a defensive backs coach.

He is currently listed as only an assistant on staff, however, which head coach Doug Marrone assured is no accident.

"Anytime you have a chance to get a coach that you admire who is a good, young football coach who is up and coming you go ahead and do that. And that’s what we did," Marrone said, via buffalobills.com. "We brought Jeff on as a defensive assistant until we know the direction that we’re going."
