‘Fromm didn’t have a very good game throwing the ball, finishing only 3-for-7 for 20 yards, but he was also under duress and sacked twice. While Fromm was playing quarterback, the Bills only had two possessions, gained 28 total net yards, and punted on both possessions.’

‘”It’s kind of a mindset we use here as a team: Be hungry and humble. That’s kind of how I take my career. Whether I’m with a new team, in a new town, new place, coming from college to the NFL, I’m always trying to stay hungry, try to always earn my spot and never taking anything for granted. And then you’ve got to stay humble too. You’ve got to make sure that you’re out there working hard and being a good teammate. Football is a lot of fun for me, so I just enjoy being out there and doing my thing wherever I’m at.”‘

‘”The Pegulas have made a proposal. They would like to build [the stadium] right there [in Orchard Park], and we need to hear back. You can’t really do plans and designs on things until you have a deal. Right now, the City of Buffalo and the state are going to have to decide if they want a team.”‘

‘Wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie was a particular standout on offense. He was on the receiving end of several passes from Trubisky and other quarterbacks, and also showed his quickness and elusiveness with the ball in his hands.’

‘The Bills have a franchise quarterback. He is 25-years-old and is under contract for eight more years.’

‘Tuesday afternoon, we learned that not only did Dawkins test positive for COVID, he was hospitalized for four days.’

‘At one point it appeared some defensive players were getting visibly frustrated with not being able to stop Allen and the passing offense, which wasn’t full of big plays, but just hit completion after completion down the field.’

‘If it were up to Allen he’d play. He said, “I love playing and I want to be out there with my teammates, but again, if I don’t I get to, I’ll sit back and watch my teammates make some plays.’

‘Left tackle Dion Dawkins saw his first team reps of camp, rotating in several different times during 11-on-11 work against the defense. Dawkins had missed roughly the first two weeks of training camp while on the Reserve/COVID-19 list, and had only been doing conditioning and individual position work since returning last week.’

‘With these moves, the Bills now have 86 players on their active roster, counting running back Christian Wade, who is exempt from the roster limit as part of the International Pathway Program. So the team doesn’t have to make any more moves prior to Tuesday’s deadline.’

‘The Bills took one knock away from their first preseason game. Isaiah Hodgins left the game in the 3rd quarter with what looked like a knee injury. “I still haven’t met with our trainer yet,” Bills coach Sean McDermott said in his post-game press conference. Hodgins was seen walking off the field toward the locker room at the end of the game.’

‘“The heart’s obviously a pretty serious thing for us human beings, so yes, it’s alarming,” Sweeney said with reporters earlier in the week. “It was a lot at once, talking about that, talking about real life, the season’s over. I thought about the career, but the doctors that I talked to and everybody here was great about it. Obviously it wasn’t a good thing, but they were pretty confident I could comeback after I got through the three month period.”’

‘I’ve been saying for weeks that the Bills linebacker group is really deep and underrated on the back-end. Along with Davis (above), Giles-Harris showed an example of that. He was all over the field, and seemingly always near the ball, finishing with five total tackles.’

‘Expectations are good to have. Fans should have high expectations for the 2021 Bills. I have them, too. But teams don’t get to just pick up where they left off the season before. It may be pretty “coach-speak-y,” but Sean McDermott is correct when he said last January that you have to start all over each season.’

‘Webb is very highly-regarded within the organization. He’s seen almost as an extra coach in meeting rooms and on the field. It’s doubtful he makes the final 53-man roster, but it’s hard not to see him ultimately back on the practice squad.’
