JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 The guy gets signed on Thursday and is playing on Saturday (and didn't embarrass himself either), but he shares a number with last week's other signee, Christian Gaddis. He's been mis-identified ever since: http://www.democratandchronicle.com/articl...h-Buffalo-Bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
udonkey Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 He's a Bearcat...and a pretty good one at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Someone called Carucci on the postgame show and asked why Gaddis was playing DT, when Manalac was calling the plays as the MLB on the third team. Not like it's the first time two players have ever worn the same number in the preseason. In fact, Ashlee Palmer and Marvin Philip were both listed with 61 on this year's original Buffalo News roster, and Nick Hennessey and Garrison Sanborn shared 69. (Yes, I believe there is a rule forbidding them to be on the field at the same time.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lori Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 No rumors, please. So THAT'S why Hennessey switched numbers so quickly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob in SC Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 So THAT'S why Hennessey switched numbers so quickly! And why he switched rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsWatch Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 They ought to allow numbers in 100s for wide bodies (linemen). They have enough room on jerseys and it would solve running out of numbers for all teams except for Bills who we know sign a DB first round, every year and usually have 20-30 on roster according to unreliable sources.
