‘”It’s simple — I want to win, I want to win a Super Bowl,” Floyd said. “I’ve been examining teams and looking at rosters, and the Bills are the best. I just felt like if I came here, I could help the team get there and win a game.”‘

‘Current season ticket holders will have the first opportunity at tickets for the new stadium. Other fans will have to sign up for the waiting list and pay a $150-per-seat deposit, with a maximum of six seats.’

‘Floyd, 30, played the last four years with the Los Angeles Rams after spending the previous four with the Chicago Bears.’

‘NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell joined Bills owner Terry Pegula, Gov. Kathy Hochul and other leaders for the ceremony.’

‘”As a Western New York kid, it gives me a great deal of pride to be here today,” he said. “I’ve been to a lot of groundbreaking ceremonies during my time in the NFL, someone asked me on the way up here how many. I don’t know, but it’s well over 20, but none of them are more meaningful than being here today. This is an extraordinary community, they deserve an extraordinary stadium, and you’re going to get it.”‘

‘Oliver doesn’t have crazy stats, but I think he’s an underappreciated piece of the Bills’ defense.’

‘The ceremony is scheduled for 9 a.m. and will be streamed on the team’s website, app, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter pages.’

‘”They actually told me before the draft even happened that that was a possibility,” Knox said. “After hearing what we’re going to be focused on if that was the pick, I was super excited for it.”‘

‘”I don’t think it should ever be a question,” Miller said. “Football is No. 1 on his mind. The way he comes out here each and every practice, the way he commits to this game, commits to his teammates — sometimes you just need a little bit of time. We’ve all seen you don’t need OTAs to be successful. 2020, nobody had OTAs, everybody was still good. He’s a proven veteran, a superstar, on and off the football field. I don’t think it’s a big deal about his not being at OTAs.”‘

‘Travelers will take a shuttle from AAA in Amherst to the Toronto airport on Oct. 5, with a non-stop overnight flight from Toronto to London arriving Oct. 6.’

‘”It looks so different when you put all these grandstands and tents up,” Allen continued. “It’s kind of almost unrecognizable, but it looks very pure right now. I get a chance to play it on Monday to, I guess, test my skills — but I’m not expecting a great score.”‘

‘The company — founded by Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones — will replace Delaware North, which has been the current stadium’s food and beverage provider since 1992.’

‘Kids Day is scheduled for Aug. 12 as the Bills host the Indianapolis Colts in a 1 p.m. kickoff.’

‘It begins with a home rematch against Rodgers and the Jets, followed by a trip to NFC champ Philadelphia. After a bye week, the Bills go out to Kansas City for their annual trip to play the Chiefs. That is followed by another playoff team for a home game with Dallas. A week later, they are out west just before Christmas to meet the Chargers on a Saturday, followed by a New Year’s Eve game in Orchard Park against the Patriots, and the finale in Miami against the Dolphins.’

‘It will be televised by NFL Network.’
