Marv Levy Retiring as Buffalo Bills' GM

Media outlets in Buffalo are reporting that Bills general manager Marv Levy will retire. WIVB-TV first reported Levy's retirement.

Levy, the Pro Football Hall of Fame coach who led the Bills to four straight Super Bowls in the 1990s, is apparently citing his age (82) as the reason that he wants to move on.

Levy retired as the Bills' coach after the 1997 season but then returned as general manager in January of 2006. He has generally done a solid job running the Bills' front office, and although they don't have a playoff berth to show for it, the team is more talented now than it was when he arrived.

The big question now is whether Levy's departure will put head coach Dick Jauron's job in jeopardy. Levy hired Jauron, and it's entirely possible that a new general manager would want a new coach. The Bills' front office could be headed for a shakeup.
