BuffaloRush Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 (edited) The newest developments in the Richie Incognito saga. He’s now begging the Bills to release him from his contract. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/04/15/richie-incognito-asks-to-be-released-from-his-contract/ If I’m the Bills, I say....HELL NO. Sorry Richie but you agreed to a restructured contract that you were happ with and now you want to back out of it? Nope sorry. You can be Anquan Boldin Part 2. And I can’t figure out if Richie is a genius or a fool for using Twitter to publicly communicate with the team Edited April 15, 2018 by BuffaloRush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 No. Absolutely not. I’m sure he was given the option to restructure or be let go. He made his choice. After bullygate, I didn’t think he could tarnish his image anymore. I was wrong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Hell no ... For all we know the patriots or some other team has been in contact with him and his odd behavior of late is some kind of ruse to go elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epstein's Mother Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 I can't imagine what's going through this guy's head. I would absolutely not let him out of his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonCents Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Nope. Team first. If OBD doesn't like how Incog or Wood retired they should go after as much money as they can and they shouldn't be in a rush to convience the players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloRush Posted April 15, 2018 Author Share Posted April 15, 2018 I love how he always leaves the laughing emoji after one of these tweets. Maybe he’s just cracking under the stress of the NFL Investigating him for the racist slur that Yannick claimed he made...and then forgot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALF Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Richie was great his last 3 seasons , even did his best to learn a complex blocking scheme last season. So they rewarded that effort with a pay cut . That was a real insult. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 If he is under contract but he still wants to play, then maybe he has some trade value. I wouldn’t want him back at this point because he would probably have a bad attitude and would be a negative influence or a distraction. He won’t get a better deal somewhere else due to a bad reputation which is only getting worse with these Twitter rants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made him a millionaire a few times over for his effort. #twowaystreet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I can’t figure out if Richie is a genius or a fool for using Twitter to publicly communicate with the team I don't think he's serious. He refers here to AthletesFirst, the agents he just fired on twitter. RI? He's a fool. I thought actually after last season that he had a lucrative career in broadcasting waiting for him - he successfully redeemed his image with the Bills, he's good-looking when he dresses well, he's well-spoken, articulate about football - all he had to do was keep it clean personally and avoid going too deep into politics. This twitter meltdown has that possibility of big $$ broadcast money in a second career flitting away from him like little birds. No network wants to sign a guy who might have a wierd grade-school-esque public twitter meltdown at any moment. Edit: wrt releasing him sure - if a team approaches us pre draft and crosses our palm with sufficient numbers of picks. Otherwise Hell to the No. You wanna be regarded as a Man, be a Man - that means be true to your word Edited April 15, 2018 by Hapless Bills Fan 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOUSE Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Not the brightest bulb in the box, signs deal, thinks about it, fires agent, retires, un-retires, asks for release. Sounds like drugs to me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're so insulted to be offered $5.9M dollars to play football, just say "no", wait for your release, and sign somewhere else - see what the market brings you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they rewarded that effort with a pay cut . That was a real insult. I didn’t expect or understand the pay cut this year either. He was clearly their best offensive lineman and wasn’t on some exorbitant contract. The amount of savings for the team was tiny and now they have another hole to fill. Say what you want about Incognito’s quirkiness, but the guy was playing lights out since he came to Buffalo and he earned that pay raise. We are a worse team without him.
