Punching Bag Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 https://www.si.com/nfl/bills/news/buffalo-dion-dawkins-personal-reasons-out-training-camp-mitch-morse Quote The Bills will work through the early stages of training camp without one of their longest-tenured blockers. Quote Dion Dawkins appears to be an early casualty of the Buffalo Bills' training camp proceedings. Head coach Sean McDermott said after Saturday's activities that Dawkins was "dealing with personal things." and that the team "hopes to get him back in a few days." Buffalo will thus be missing their starting left tackle for the immediate future. While McDermott was mum about what's keeping him out, his linemate Mitch Morse noted that "everybody is praying for Dion" and encouraged others to do the same, News 4 Buffalo reported. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thurman#1 Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 I have some more religious friends who say this often and in case of problems not sized anywhere near as large as the language always makes me think. I hope that's what's happening here. Wishing you the best, Dion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarlinTheMagician Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 One of my all-time favorite Bills. Our family's thoughts and prayers go out to the Schnowman! I knew we had a fun group with him and Tre in 2018. They are heart and soul dudes. Go Schnow! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dion constantly gives back to the community and fans in addition to his clear dedication to the team. Go away. 6 1 1 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFS pal, every other thing you post is straight negativity. The dude is a consummate professional but football is not the be all end all. I hope whatever is going on with him is taken care of and he will be in our thoughts until it is. If you were a true Bills fan, you would say the same. 3 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julian Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 There always seems to be somebody at work who needs time off, what seems to be an excessive amount compared to everyone else. Coworkers roll their eyes and make jokes. I was fortunate enough to put 25 years in without needing any time away from work, then out of nowhere several personal emergencies and unfortunate life events happened one after another after another for several years. You just never know what a coworker is going through in life, especially if they don’t share details with those at work. I guess all I’m saying is if you live long enough you’ll experience rough stretches so maybe give the benefit of the doubt. 3 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 2 hours ago, EffKCChiefs said: It's always something with this guy. He's a good player but he's also completely full of it. I don't think he's "full of it"..........but as I've said he managed to get ill with Covid twice in a 5 month span last season..........the first time was quite critical. Covid isn't gone.........I know people who are very ill with it right now including a family member of mine.......so assuming the concern of a re-occurance is all behind Dion now is very presumptuous considering the impact it had on him. And yet the Bills have nobody in the OL room who can be expected to play ANY snaps at LT. Their choice of a swing tackle was a run-block only RT in Quessenberry who lead all tackles in sacks allowed in 2021 (as a RT). Jason Peters is out there........he should be IN Buffalo. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
