I think this might be it. Same reason Hollins was in so much, despite nearly begging the refs to hand him 15 yards - he’s top 2 blocking WRs in the league, and he’s not number 2.
One of the benefits of moving away from WNY is you only get the national narrative on the bills, and not the local. Turns out the former thinks the bills are far superior to the latter. It’s nice.
