'Bush has since sued the St. Louis Convention and Visitors Commission, blaming the season-ending injury on the "concrete ring of death," surrounding the field. The Rams have since moved to Los Angeles.'

'The biggest move in the NFL this offseason didn’t involve a player or coach.'

'Bush, 31, played just five games for the San Francisco 49ers before a a torn meniscus ended his 2015 season. The free agent has played for four teams during his 10-year career and has played in 16 games twice (2006, 2012).'

'Congratulations NFL! You go on ahead and do your research about field goals while your fan base and coaches/players have no idea what a catch is anymore. That certainly isn’t a problem. Pass interference calls are so subjective, we should develop a book on officials to see which ones tend to let players battle and which ones are more likely to throw the flag. The interpretation of intentional grounding seems to be different from one referee to the next.'

'The 31-year old Bush played only 16 games over the past two seasons with the Lions and 49ers (only five last year in San Francisco) due to various injuries. The former 2nd-overall pick out of USC has over 9000 yards from scrimmage and 55 touchdowns in his ten year career.'

'Bush, 31, suffered a torn ACL in November of last season and has not signed with any team at this point in the offseason. Rapoport added that Bush is weighing options, and is in "no rush" to make a decision.'

'His plight will be all about knowing and understanding the NFL offense, deciphering NFL defenses, taking on the mechanical work that quarterbacks coach David Lee will put him through, and learning how to be a professional quarterback. With all of that needed in just a small time frame, the odds are against Jones making an impact enough to be the backup quarterback this year.'

'The Bills put out an offer to Bush, but the running back is weighing his options and is in no rush to make decision, added Rapoport.'

'If you’re looking for a fun getaway this summer, Bills Training Camp is the place to be! St. John Fisher College, conveniently located in Pittsford, N.Y., gives fans the opportunity to keep up with their hometown team, as well as make lasting memories.'

'“It really comes to how physical can we play,” said receivers coach Sanjay Lal. “In the red zone, there’s going to be grabbing, there’s going to be guys hooking people, so now if we’re strong and big and physical and nasty, how do we fight through it? That’s encouraging that you actually have the physical skill set to do it. It’s nice as a coach to have those tools.”'
