‘Robertson was initially signed by Buffalo in December, but did not play in the team’s final two games.’

‘Mularkey says there is not a cast on the foot, but he did have a walking boot on.’

‘The team will hold two additional minicamps in the month of June. The workouts will run from June 2-4, and June 14-16.’

‘”In the fall of 2002, we shared our vision with the University at Buffalo. The university offered to house the institute in the planned Center of Excellence in Bioinformatics and Life Sciences, and to help us find a director to lead the institute. We thought it would take many years of planning and fundraising for our dream to come true,” said Waggoner. “When we learned that our research institute would be part of the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, an incredible collaboration between UB, Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute, Roswell Park Cancer Institute and the greater Buffalo medical community, we were very pleased and very excited.”‘

‘"I think we probably will have a bigger role (this year)," said Neufeld who currently holds the backup tight end role. "I think we’ll do a lot of two tight end sets, and provide good flexibility because the second tight end could be spread out or in the slot running routes, or taking on the responsibility of the fullback position."’

‘"When you look at the Bills, you’ve got to say they are rock solid on the defensive side of the football," Jaworski said Wednesday at the Lake Erie Italian Club in Lackawanna, where the Western New York Chapter of the National Football Foundation held a reception in his honor. "They were the No. 2 defense in the league last year and really was the heartbeat of the team. But I think they lost their balance on offense a little bit and I think (new coach) Mike Mularkey will bring that back because he understands the importance of a running game and being able to throw the ball efficiently. If the offense comes together, I think this could be an exciting year for the Bills."’
