[1][2] Recognized as the top assistant coach during the 2019 college football season, Brady was honored with the 24th annual Broyles Award.
[8] On January 16, 2020, Brady was hired by the Carolina Panthers as their offensive coordinator under head coach Matt Rhule.
[12] The Bills fired OC Ken Dorsey on November 14, 2023 after a 5–5 start to the 2023 season, and Brady was promoted to interim offensive coordinator.
[14][15] This new approach helped Buffalo win six of their final seven games to finish with an 11–6 record and their fourth consecutive AFC East title.
[17] Brady further refined this philosophy, which he dubbed "Everybody Eats," in the 2024 season, in which a league-record 13 offensive players scored receiving touchdowns en route to the Bills' 13–4 record and an AFC Championship Game appearance.
