If he wants to sit around, not get paid, and wait for the Titans to (maybe) call then it's his choice to make! Maybe he's just comfortable, has plenty of money, and doesn't want to start bouncing around the league every year or two. Moving to Buffalo for a temporary job? come on guys that’s a poor excuse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punters are not in short supply but jobs are. I can't even imagine an agent letting this happen. He isn't waiting on a job. He is retiring and making himself available if things don't work out. Basically he is going to stay in shape for a year. Guy doesn't want to leave his home. He has a huge loyal fanbase in TN and a great life. He made the right move. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to hate on the guy for making a decision that is best for him and his family. Sure, I'd like to seem him in a Bills uniform, but I respect the decision he (appears to have) made. Let's hope the Bills can get a deal done with Martin so everyone can move on in this situation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Doug Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Technically, they could place him on their practice squad and he can say he’s practicing from home. This would at least get him a paycheck. Either way, this guy is 100% not the guy I would want on the Bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airseven Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 At this point in his career, the guy wants to stay home with his family and ties. Nothing wrong with a gentleman's agreement or retirement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kern is likely is going to get a retirement ceremony at half of some game and some TV work or something with the organization if he wants. Not too many guys left in the NFL that have played 13 years in one spot. He was sort of one of the faces of the franchise and he was just a punter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boater Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 To twist the words of an old internet meme "Brett Kern just isn't that into Buffalo" So much for those who lobby to bring the local boy home. Looks like the local boy said screw you. F' him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my experience pro athletes have cell phones in hand practically 24-7 anyway. They WISH they would get that call. Be Ready! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
