Bills may be in tough to make the playoffs this season. That's a crippling injury for a guy that missed most of last season.

Definitely the latter, especially because of how militant one of them has been about him.

I’ve literally never heard of that player outside of this website. It’s a curious obsession for sure

Who was pumping him up? He doesn't suck, but he is also not NFL material.

Bertuzzied was Rourke's biggest backer.

I would have liked to see him make it as a backup. But he does need to play somewhere and the CFL is his best chance to play and make money right now. Maybe with more actual playing experience he might get another look. But it's a Longshot at this time and he still could have a nice CFL career making enough to retire quite comfortably.

Odd move by ESPN. Obviously they were in a mad rush to hire a Kelce brother, who always gain media attention. Yet to get rid of Griffin with two years left on his contract seems unusual. Lots of weird stuff going on within the ranks at ESPN these days.

ESPN has fired Robert Griffin III.
Griffin, who as recently as last year had been viewed as a rising star at ESPN, had two years remaining on his contract and was replaced by Jason Kelce for the NFL shows.

ESPN is a mess.

I assumed it was a Disney cost cutting move in order to keep paying Pat McAfee obscene amounts of money to be a chud for three hours a day every day.

I won’t miss him, he was the Richard Jefferson of college football. I’m sure he’ll be on fox sports soon anyhow.

RG3 is also hated on a lot because he shares his life with his snow bunny a lot and that triggers a lot of people.

I've lived through Kenny Pickett. I'm ready for anything

Problem is you know Tomlin will squeeze blood from the stone to get into 9-8 purgatory again, so no matter how mediocre or worse the Wilson/Fields tandem is, the Steelers path to upgrading from them won't be available. Other than, you know, paying Dak $60 million+ per year next March.

[devo22]

Aiyuk would help, but it looks like that's not happening after all. Either way, I doubt Wilson will start for long ... fully expect Fields to take that job sooner rather than later.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Paying Aiyuk when you have backup level QB play would be such a silly error, all it does is further entrench the Steelers into that 9-8 purgatory.

The 8 yard preseason completion that will be replayed endlessly

Chargers not looking like much of an offensive powerhouse. I’m far from a Herbert truther but he needs to get healthy fast

[Calgary]

Palmer's time to finally breakout for the Chargers?
