‘Gaddis (6’1″ 300) is familiar to Buffalo’s offensive staff. He spent the 2007 season with the club, first as a member of the team’s practice squad before being called up to the active roster for the last seven weeks of the regular season that year.’

‘”Terrell Owens will not participate in tonight’s practice due to a sprained toe. I will address his status in more detail following tonight’s practice session.”‘

‘”He’s been excused,” said Jauron. “I’ll address it further tonight.”‘

‘”It is good to get the cob webs out,” Edwards said. “We had it going on that first drive. We were throwing the ball around a little bit, we just can’t turn the ball over and that is the bottom line.”‘

‘”It was a lucky pick,” Wilson said. “Because over the years, they have supported the team in Buffalo beyond our fondest dreams, and without the support, I wouldn’t be on this platform tonight.”‘

””His preparation during the week was impeccable,” Cottrell said during his introduction of Smith at Saturday night’s Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony at Canton’s Fawcett Stadium. “After the games, about 8 a.m. on Monday morning, the coaching staff, we’re just beginning to read film from the previous day, watch the tape. There’s a knock on my door … It’s him."’

””So Bills fans, now’s the time that we’ve all been waiting for … now’s the time,” said Cottrell. “Let’s get this noise level up in here … come on now. You know how to do it. Come on, you know how to do this. Show the world.”‘
