John Murphy, “the voice of the Bills,” will begin the 2023 season still on the sideline.
Murphy suffered a stroke last December prior to the Bills’ matchup at the Cincinnati Bengals.
Without Murphy, team reporter Chris Brown took over the play-by-play duties with the team’s radio partner, WGR-550, alongside Eric Wood. Brown, a host on the team’s radio show “One Bills Live,” will continue as the interim replacement for Murphy.
Murphy has been in the role since 2003 after the retirement of Van Miller. Murphy is also a member of the Buffalo Broadcasters Association’s Hall of Fame.
The Buffalo News reports that Murphy’s recovery is “going well.”
“We continue to wish John and the Murphy family the best in his recovery,” the Bills said in a brief statement.
