John Murphy was the Sports Director at WKBW for years; he was also part of the Buffalo Bills broadcast team.

He left WKBW and went to work for the Bills as their full-time play-by-play announcer.

In January 2023, Murphy suffered a stroke and has been recovering from the incident.

While his recovery has gone well, Murphy has decided to step down as from his job at the Bills.

"I'll miss it a great deal," Murphy said. "I'll miss the people more than anything."

Murphy also shared that he and his wife Mary both agreed that this was the right time for him to step away and that he is at peace with the decision.
