Bills’ Jordan Phillips fires back at Eagles’ Jason Kelce for ‘crazy’ comment
‘“When you look at the Tush Push he dives at somebody’s knees every play and tries to roll them up,” said Phillips. “For him to speak on somebody being dirty, I don’t think he has any right or any means to call for a fine when he does a whole bunch of stuff. I think it’s crazy for him to even mention that.”’

Brandon Beane on Von Miller: He is available to play as legal conversations play out
‘“We were made aware last Thursday about the situation regarding Von, probably the similar time that you guys heard about it,” Beane said. “Checked in with his agent and then obviously with the NFL, and as you probably read or heard, there’s multiple versions of what happened, and so there’s not a lot that I can say. Von is here, he’ll be a part of the team and we’ll let the investigation, and we’ll follow the lead of the NFL from that standpoint.”’

‘Silent Bills owner/CEO/president/big boss Terry Pegula had a chance to send a message to the nearly 60 female employees who work for his team, the women whose job is to cover his team and the legion of female fans who cheer for his team by instructing Beane and coach Sean McDermott to deactivate Miller. Instead, Miller, in the middle of his worst on-field season (no sacks and no impact), is expected to play against the Chiefs.’
Mark Gaughan: Bills need to give Kaiir Elam a shot to boost man coverage
‘The Bills need somebody who can play man coverage a little better. Elam is the cornerback best suited to do it because of his size – 6-foot-1½ and 191 pounds – and his speed – 4.39 seconds in the 40-yard dash, best among the Bills’ defensive backs.’
Bills notebook: Dawson Knox upbeat about wrist after coming off injured reserve
‘“Just talking to Joe, I think this is the most fresh I’ve ever felt in Week 13 or 14 of a season before,” Knox said, referring to offensive coordinator Joe Brady. “I got some great time to get the legs back ready. The wrist feels great. Big shoutout to the strength staff and the training staff here putting in the hours and the time. But thankful to be back with the team.”’
Von Miller still ‘part of the team’ and available to play vs Chiefs, says Bills GM
‘Beane was careful in his remarks during a 19-minute interaction with reporters, but when he was asked whether he thought Roger Goodell would put Miller on the commissioner’s exempt list, meaning he would be ineligible to play until the league’s investigation into the matter is complete, Beane said, “We don’t expect anything based on our conversations. Anytime it’s an ongoing investigation, if something was uncovered, the commissioner does have that (option) at any point. If he feels there was something that, hey, this doesn’t look good or something like that, they could, but with our knowledge of what we have today, we don’t expect that.”’
Sean McDermott should not be fired by Buffalo Bills, even if he misses playoffs
‘Let’s also remember that changing the coach doesn’t always work, and we don’t have to look any further than the 21st century Bills for glaring proof.

Bills’ Dawson Knox returns: How will TE fit into new Joe Brady offense?
‘“In my mind, I was ready to play (against the Philadelphia Eagles),” Knox said. “(But the wrist) didn’t show enough healing for me to play. But missing one game, but also gaining the bye week, it’s kind of like a buy one get one free. The two extra weeks of healing I think did a huge number on the wrist and made sure it’s all the way back.”’
ESPN host erupts on Get Up! staff over Buffalo Bills’ Josh Allen
‘“I’m aiming this directly at my favorite people in the world, the staff of this show,” Greenberg said on air. “The team that puts together this show… Jordan Love: How many touchdowns is he going to throw? Tyreek Hill, how many yards? Josh Allen: How many turnovers? What a disrespectful question for us to be asking about a guy who is playing, I’m going to say it, better than anyone in this league!”’

That’s a very serious nature and something that we would definitely… we’re gonna take every precaution with.”‘
