Two Bills Drive

'“Well the doctors are hopeful, we’re all hopeful,’’ McDermott said. “That said, it’s really week to week at this point, and we hope to get him back as soon as possible.’’'

'“I don’t know where they’re coming from, other than camp is a little bit shorter this year, so I understand that,” Brandon said in an exclusive interview with the Democrat and Chronicle. “We just signed a new agreement in October, a five-year extension with Fisher. We’re committed to Rochester; it’s a very important market to us. We’re committed to St. John Fisher, and we look forward to a partnership here for many, many years to come.”'

'At this point, Glenn's foot has been an issue for months. Without him, the Bills would be down to rookie Dion Dawkins at left tackle. He has spent most of camp working at right tackle after spending the spring working at left tackle. While the Bills are hopeful that Glenn can return for Week 1, that's not a guarantee.'

'For the second straight practice, Anquan Boldin was Tyrod Taylor's most-targeted wide receiver. Taylor threw Boldin's way five times during practice and Boldin caught all five of those passes. He's starting to look like the team's primary option in the passing game with Sammy Watkins gone and Jordan Matthews injured. Boldin will make his preseason debut on Thursday.'

'Without grabbing a degree, Peterman could transfer but would have to sit out a year. So he did, earning his undergraduate degree in communications. Peterman added an MBA from Pittsburgh as well. In an era where many leave college a year early to chase the NFL, Peterman has two degrees.'

'Darby said there "wasn't much to do" in Buffalo, preferring Canada and the 90-minute drive to Toronto, Ontario, for recreation.'

'"The doctors are hopeful. We're all hopeful," McDermott said. "We're hopeful at this point that this is something that finalizes it and knocks it out and Cordy can return on a full-time basis."'

'"I was very annoyed," Beane told Pro Football Talk on Tuesday. "We would not have tried to get Anquan Boldin on our team if we were tanking. We would not have tried to get Jordan Matthews — who, if you look at his numbers in his first three years, they're pretty good. We would not have tried to get E.J. Gaines. We would have just tried to get more draft capital if we weren't worried about 2017. We're going to compete our tails off for 2017."'

'With Glenn sidelined for parts of training camp, Seantrel Henderson has practiced with the Bills' first team at left tackle. Because Henderson is suspended for the first five games of the regular season, McDermott said rookie second-round pick Dion Dawkins would replace Glenn at left tackle if his foot injury causes him to miss regular-season games.'

'“Back home in Cincinnati, I got to talk to him for a little bit,” Brown said Tuesday morning with Howard Simon and Jeremy White on WGR. “I just learned about coach [McDermott" target="_blank"> and what things he expects from his linebackers and his players, how Kuechly played it, what way he was playing. Just learning things on how he’s so successful and it was great to sit down to talk for him for a bit.”'

'Newly acquired WR Jordan Matthews, who is out with a chip fracture in his chest, was on the field in a jersey watching his fellow wide receivers and talking with position coach Phil McGeoghan.'

'“We’re right on course and right where we need to be at this point in training camp,” Frazier said with Howard Simon and Jeremy While live from training camp Tuesday morning. “We laid a good foundation looking back at what we did in off-season which was good for our ongoing preparation.”'

'Seriously, could this have gone to anyone else? #FreeEddieYarbrough has been a revelation for the Bills in training camp this summer.'

'“The doctors are hopeful,” said McDermott of Glenn’s prognosis. “We’re all hopeful, but we’re really just week to week at this point and hope to get him back as soon as possible. We just have to stay on top of it.”'

'“It was good. It was fun,” said Preston Brown. “Coach took care of us when we need to be taken care of. And we worked every single day. That’s something that was great. We went out there and got better every day.”'
