Bills name new full-time play-by-play announcer

The Buffalo Bills have officially named the team’s new full-time play-by-play announcer.

Chris Brown has had the “interim” tag removed from his title and is now the full-time guy. The Bills announced the decision on social media on Tuesday:

Brown had previously already been replacing John Murphy in the position in the radio booth. Murphy suffered a stroke in December 2022 and has seen improvements in his health but he decided to retire following the 2023 NFL season.

Brown is only the third full-time PxP broadcaster hired by the team (Van Miller, Murphy) in their history.

Brown is a co-host of the weekday talk show One Bills Live on WGR-550 radio. He has worked in various capacities with the team since 2006.

Former Bills center Eric Wood will continue to join Brown in the booth on game days providing color commentary.

Brown released this statement following the announcement via the team’s website:

“I’d like to thank the Pegula family, Pete Guelli, the Bills organization, and then over at Audacy Buffalo Tim Wenger and Allan Davis. I was fortunate enough to know Van Miller and John Murphy. I worked with them, learned from them. I’m grateful to be trusted with this responsibility going forward.”
