JerseyBills Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 I'd take him in a NY minute and make Boogie give up his 55 Jersey 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airseven Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 To be fair, Hughes wasn’t getting many offers in free agency and he took the money (that could only be offered by a team trying to fill the worst roster in football). Can’t blame him for going to the highest bidder in twilight of his career. That being said, he’s had a good year but is in no position to complain. Appreciate your payday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rigotz Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Classic Jerry Hughes meltdown. I’d welcome him back on a vet minimum if released and am simultaneously not sad he’s gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) My buddy who has some kind of inside source that he said he can't tell me because he could get in trouble claims that "word on the street" is that Jerry Hughes is going to be released and will be a Bill again by the end of the week. Take it FWIW. Obviously Houston has to agree to release him. He has been right numerous times in the past about things.

You'd think Belichick would grab him just to prevent him from joining the Bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of times the agent is like don’t claim him in these scenarios and if teams do it creates a bad situation with AGENT/GM and it’s not worth it since player likely won’t report/show 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jokeman Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 He's produced in Houston possible with an uptick in snaps as he's playing about 60% of their defensive snaps, am not sure he'd get same snap count here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take it FWIW. Obviously Houston has to agree to release him. He has been right numerous times in the past about things. This makes sense to me. Houston really has nothing to gain by keeping him. We have a great relationship with their front office. We have a great need at edge rusher. If Von is able to play in a few weeks/playoffs.....I love the idea of special pass rush packages where Hughes and Von are both standing up next to each other on the end of the line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreadlox Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 FWIW it looks like Jerry has a $6.25M non guaranteed salary next season with a$1.25M cap hit if released. Salary this year is $3.75M so like $1.25M remaining? I am skeptical that this return actually happens but I’ll be happy if it does. Epenesa to IR?

He probably would for the next couple weeks considering how banged up we are at DE. Obviously light years ahead of Mike Love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
