‘”I talked to Tony Romo for a couple hours at the Super Bowl,” Allen said, via Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated. “And I got to talking with him about mechanics and keeping your head on the same plane, same axis, and kind of rotating around it, keeping your left arm super tight, and finding a way to throw the same exact way out of any position, whether your feet are set or not. That’s really been paying off. It’s been a good thing for me, and it’s gonna continue to be something I’ll work on.”‘

Bills’ Jake Fromm apologizes for leaked text: ‘There’s no excuse for that word choice and sentiment’

While it was poor, my heart is not. Now, more than ever, is the time for support and togetherness and I stand against racism 100%. I promise to commit myself to being a part of the solution in this country. I addressed my teammates and coaches in a team meeting today and I hope they see this incident is not representative of the person I am. Again, I’m truly sorry for my words and actions and humbly ask for forgiveness.”‘
Bills safety explains why Tom Brady leaving the Patriots, AFC East is ‘bittersweet’
‘”It’s wide open with 12 out of the division. It makes it wide open and that’s on us in order to take advantage of that,” Poyer told Giardi. “I’d say it is bittersweet having Tom out of the division just because I had never beaten Tom. I think I’m like 0-9 against Tom, so I definitely wanted to get a W in that column. But it’s a great opportunity for us to seize, and we have the pieces — just continue to work and trust the process.”‘
