‘“The facts of the incident are not what they are portrayed in the lawsuit or in the press. I look forward to quickly setting the record straight,” Araiza said, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.’

‘“It’s a shakedown because he’s now with the Buffalo Bills,” Armstrong said. “There is no doubt in my mind that Matt Araiza ever raped that girl.”’

‘However, Ford’s playing time has dipped in recent seasons. He played in seven games during the 2020 campaign due to groin and knee injuries. Last season, he returned to play in 15 games, but made just seven starts, exclusively as a right guard.’

‘Buffalo held a moment of silence for Knox, the younger brother of tight end Dawson Knox, prior to kickoff. CBS play-by-play announcer Andrew Catalon announced that Dawson, who is entering his fourth season with the Bills, was not in attendance at the game and will be away from the team indefinitely.’

‘Some quickly recognized him, while others appeared to never catch on. Every player at least penned an autograph on Keenum’s football before realizing who he was. His bucket hat, glasses and fake Southern accent surely helped his cause.’

‘Miller was quick to point out that these small gripes were worthy tradeoffs for the team-building aspect of training camp, and that he was all for the conditions. But that didn’t stop fans from lending a helping hand in making their new star defender feel a little more comfortable in his training camp dwelling, sending the seven-time All-Pro linebacker all sorts of sanitary reinforcments.’

‘While running a drill down by the goal line, Allen took a shotgun snap and started to scramble up the middle to the end zone. He reached the two-yard line and the whistle sounded, but a split second after the play was blown dead, defensive tackle Jordan Phillips bumped into the unsuspecting quarterback.’

‘Corner is a spot to watch. Veteran Dane Jackson and first-round pick Kaiir Elam are running with the first team. How they play could wind up being important, with Tre’Davious White on PUP recovering from torn ACL, and not a sure thing to be back for Week 1. After White does return, either Jackson or Kaiir will likely end up bookending him at the position.’

‘We competed at everything. But when I think about the competition I have with other people, I don’t care about them. I want to win by any means.’

‘”This is a six-year deal, so I’m looking forward to playing the whole thing,” Miller told the Buffalo News last month at minicamp. “I’m trying to play the whole thing out. Tom Brady’s done it. Bruce Smith has done it. All the guys that I look up to when it comes to longevity in careers. So I just take it one day at a time, and I’m just gonna take whatever God gives me. My intention is to play the whole thing out.”‘

‘“I could have stayed… and rode off into the sunset…and rushed with Aaron Donald and piled up sacks but I wasn’t content,” Miller said.’

‘It remains unknown exactly what health issues Pegula is facing.’

‘The Thurman Thomas Family Foundation created a link specifically for this cause, which has currently raised over $125,000 according to his wife, Patricia Thomas. They named the campaign “For the Love of Buffalo.”’

‘“Praying for and with our Buffalo community. Our hearts are with the victims, their families and friends,” said the Bills in a statement issued on Twitter. The organization’s response prompted a reply from receiver Stefon Diggs, who shared a crying emoji and a heart.’

‘As with previous editions of The Match, players will have open microphones throughout play and able to carry conversations with each other and TV commentators. The broadcast team will be announced at a later date.’
