BuffaloBillyG Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Didn't even make it until final cuts this year on a team that moved on from their top 2 TEs from last year. (Waller/Moreau). Shame to see injuries derail what could have been a great career. Bad signing last year by Beane but at least he didn't compound it by keeping him around. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan28277 Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 And if he would have made the team last year and performed adequately, maybe we don't draft Kincaid this year. Blessings in disguise. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

78thealltimegreat Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Most players get placed on waivers…but with OJ when he gets waived it’s usually his coaching waving so long to him at the facility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a difficult enough time coming back from the less severe injuries like high ankle sprains, but the ruptured achilles early in the 2020 season proved to be too much. He was just never the same athlete after that. I give him credit for trying though. Edited August 1, 2023 by K-9 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 I just hope he signs a one day contract with us so he can retire a Bill. Definitely one of the greatest tight ends to ever wear #8 for the Bills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard averaged 500 yards and 5 tds his first 2 years. I also loved him college and all accounts are he’s a great dude.

JohnNord Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 19 hours ago, Airseven said: Never fully recovered from the injury. Its wild and it shows that the draft can be a crapshoot - not only based on the player’s ability to translate into the NFL but circumstances like injuries etc. I remember that coming out of the draft in 2017 there were analysts who said Howard was a “can’t miss” prospect at TE. His early years showed promise but after a few injuries and the torn ACL he was a shell of himself. ”Can’t miss” prospect in 2017 Career likely over in 2023.

machine gun kelly Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 6 hours ago, BuffaloBillyG said: Yes. I have him firmly in the "Top 5 Bills All-Time Named OJ list". That’s the sad thing about Simpson is if he wasn’t a POS, his single season record is the greatest of all time. I looked up Jim Brown in 12 games and all the 2000 yards guys as pretty much everyone was 16 games and no one did what OJ did in 14 games. No one ever. The crazy thing kid for years everyone knew he was coming and 8 in the box and he still did it. Talk about the ultimate goof for a Bills fan. You have the greatest single season performance better than Jim Brown, Gale Sayers, Sweetness, the dancer in Detroit, and he’s ends up a murderer and everyone has disdain. Only in Buffalo. Talk about a lunch pail, time to make the donuts mentality as we don’t even get that one. Maybe Josh does something so unique once he’s 40 we get our unicorn. It would be nice as there is no better fan base in all of sports, any sports! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
