‘”After watching the game, I didn’t think he took any big shots, which is obviously a factor for us in terms of how he runs,” Dorsey said. “Watching it, I think there’s times where we just tell him, ‘Hey, in this situation, make sure you’re getting down and making sure you’re not taking any extra hits.'”‘

‘Josh Allen threw for nearly three hundred yards, three touchdowns, was the Bills leading rusher and also ran in a score.’

‘”I can’t wait,” said Bills safety Micah Hyde. “I played in the opening night game before when I was in Green Bay, going to Seattle, and it was wild. You kind of have to control your emotions a little bit but it’s an awesome atmosphere.”‘

‘”When it’s time to fight,” Quessenberry said, “You step up and it’s time to fight.”‘

‘”We’ve come all the way across the country, a little sunshine, great looking team,” Wannemacher said. “We’ve been hearing all winter long about how great we’re going to be, and now we get to put it on the field.”‘

‘The deal makes Knox the sixth-highest-paid tight end in the league. He’s coming off a career year with nine touchdowns in the regular season, plus two more in the playoffs.’

‘”There is no secret,” Miller said. “There’s nothing I can say. There is no weakness. I’ll be setting them up for failure if I say, ‘If you just do this, you’ll be alright.’ He’s good at everything.”‘

‘”I thought about, like, what I’m going to say to Aaron Donald in warm-ups is Coach (Sean) McVay going to look at me crazy before the game? And if he does, how do I react to that? Miller said. “What if I try to talk to a guy before the game and he doesn’t want to talk to me? What if the fans boo me? What if the fans cheer me?”‘

‘”This is Week 1. We’re not going to make or break on this game,” Bills safety Micah Hyde said. “We understand this is a very good opponent. Obviously, they’re going to probably raise the banner when we go down Thursday night, just won the Super Bowl, so it’s a very good football team.”‘

‘A two-time Pro Bowl selection, White has not yet practiced with the team this season. His absence means rookies Kaiir Elam or Christian Benford will likely start at cornerback opposite of Dane Jackson in next Thursday’s season opener.’

‘Howard, 27, came to Buffalo on a one-year, $3.5 million contract after five seasons with Tampa Bay. He was unable to surpass Dawson Knox, Tommy Sweeney or Quintin Morris on the depth chart. Howard will get to keep nearly $3.2 million despite being cut.’

‘The All-Pro safety wore a red non-contact jersey at practice.’

‘The Bills gave an indication of where this situation was headed when Sean McDermott decided not to dress and play Araiza in the final preseason game on Friday. Then they made the move to cut the rookie punter on Saturday evening. The team will be in the market for a punter because they released the only other punter they had at camp, Matt Haack, earlier in the week.’

‘While Matt Araiza’s future with the Buffalo Bills is undetermined, fans in Rochester said they are confident their beloved team will move on with or without him.’

‘“We were recently made aware of a civil complaint involving Matt from October 2021,” the Bills said in a statement on Thursday night. “Due to the serious nature of the complaint, we conducted a thorough examination of this matter. As this is an ongoing civil case legal, we will have no other comment at this point.”’
