'Gay was a kickoff specialist. The Bills are currently fifth in the NFL in kickoff return average allowed.'

'he Bills sorely missed second-year wide receiver Sammy Watkins last weekend against the New York Giants, and even though he’s got a calf injury — an area of the body that usually has lingering injuries to players at his position — don’t rule out Watkins just yet.'

'Cundiff, 35, will be on his sixth team with the Bills since entering the NFL in 2002. He spent last season as the placekicker for the Cleveland Browns, and had previous stops in Washington, Baltimore, New Orleans, and Dallas.'

'Offensive MVP – Tom Brady: This is no contest. He is a man on the mission after he feels he was “wronged” by the deflategate scandal. He is the MVP of the division and the MVP of the entire league. He is why the Patriots are the best team in football.'

'Cundiff has always had a strong leg and is expected to take over kickoff duties. Whether he becomes a direct competitor for Carpenter on field goal attempts remains to be seen. His best single season came in 2010 with Baltimore when he was good on just under 90 percent of his kicks going 26-29 on field goal attempts (89.7%).'

'“Billy is a guy that obviously has a history in this league, but he does have a strong leg so he can handle kickoffs and he’s been a good kicker,” said Ryan. “We’ll see how everything plays out.”'
