'Williams wrote on his Twitter account that, "The return is gonna be so sweet," and ESPN reported that he was scheduled to visit Thursday with the Bills, who released the 2015 fifth-round pick in August after his suspension was levied.'

'"I've always said this is a performance-based business," Bills general manager Doug Whaley said Aug. 21. "The release of Karlos Williams was strictly performance-based. He came in behind the eight ball and never caught up. And there was other guys on the roster that moved ahead of him.'

'Several punches were thrown during a shoving match between players and coaches that erupted about an hour before kickoff.'

'"I never had a meeting with Karlos," Rex said in response to a question about a comment from Williams' fiancé that the Bills had canceled their meeting with Karlos.'

'The Bills would not directly address the Karlos Williams reports in any capacity.'

'Bills 16, Rams 13.'

'“I’m very eager,” Hunter said. “Coming at it with a great mindset. Coming in like I’m ready to play. They told me I was going to be able to play this week and that’s how I’m just taking it.”'

'Fisher spent that year as an “unofficial coach” for Ryan, working with the defensive backfield and helping install the famed ‘46’ alignment. His reward was a Super Bowl ring … and a new job.'

'"I mean, talk is cheap," Dareus said after his first practice since returning from his four-game banishment, during which he said he underwent treatment for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder rather than entering a rehabilitation facility as he and the Bills announced he was doing on Aug. 20. "I'm just all about actions. I'm going to do the best I can."'

'That’s right. Dareus needs to grow up and show some gratitude to the team and the fans who have stood by him, enabling him to act like some kind of victim.'

'Said one Bills player who was given anonymity: “I see Trump as someone who is hostile to people of color, and the fact that Rex supports him made me look at him completely differently, and not in a positive way.”'

'Q: Can you outline your offensive tackle situation? A: I think I’ll start with Jordan (Mills). I think Jordan is going to be just fine. Cordy (Glenn) did a great job. Played through—we had 86 snaps on offense, so we hope we have that many again. That would be outstanding. But Cordy you know, he played well in the game, got through the game, but he’s sore right now. So we’ll probably back him off in practice today for sure. But he is sore.'

'He said now that he has taken “proactive” steps to deal with that condition by assembling a support team that includes a doctor who specializes in treating ADHD, and a life coach whom he will lean on for guidance away from the field, he can now be a “better person” who wants to be “the best possible teammate possible.”'

'Zach Brown was named AFC defensive player of the week after a performance that was as impressive as any by a Bills linebacker in team history.'
