As part of the return to normalcy, I don't think Biden will do something so Trump-like as to fire him on arrival. Joe has two bigger fish to fry, the existing problems like the pandemic and related economic crisis, and the rebuilding of the entire spectrum of government agencies tasked with solving those problems. Unless some serious malfeasance is found, I think Joe will want to restore the norm of the FBI Director's term overlapping administrations, even if just for symbolic reasons.
