Mike In Illinois Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 @SalSports Sal Capaccio Former #Buffalo #Bills safety Donte Whitner has confirmed to me via text that he has agreed to a 2-year deal with the #Cincinnati #Bengals. @SalSports Sal Capaccio Whitner via text: "It was a long wait but I learned a lot from this and....(cont)... @SalSports Sal Capaccio ....it will only Make me a better father, person and football player. Go #Bills! 4 Life"
eball Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Ahh...and finally one sordid chapter ends. Good luck in Cincy, Donte. See you in Week 4.
Wooderson Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 His twitter post from 10 mins ago just says "Who Dey!" so I guess it must be true. Can't wait to see what the contract numbers.
Mike In Illinois Posted August 4, 2011 Author Posted August 4, 2011 October 2nd: Buffalo at Cincy, FWIW.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Circle October 2nd on your calendar Scott Chandler. It's going to be a 100 yard receiving day for you.
Jauronimo Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 He's not a bad player, but I think this move is best for both parties. It would've been weird having Donte back after we fans and some in the media spent the last 6 months celebrating his departure.
billsfan89 Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Nice pickup for the Bungles if they got him for cheap which it looks like they did. He is a solid NFL safety just not an elite player. He isn't a game changer but can be a nice cog in the defense. Wilson approximates his production so its not a big loss for the Bills.
Mike In Illinois Posted August 4, 2011 Author Posted August 4, 2011 Coach has called out John Clayton on Twitter. Clayton reports that Whitner Tweeted the deal with Cincy, when in fact Whitner sent a direct message to Sal, who reported the news first; he had not stated it publicly. Coach was quick to correct Clayton- pretty funny.

And by the way, I can't say enough how pleased I am SDS chose to keep this and SabreSpace "clean" message boards. That Cincy board, and others like it, are absolutely obnoxious with all of the clutter.

DreamOnDan Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Bengals board is pretty optimistic, i like it... wish we had some of that around here sometimes.. Good pickup for them, whitner is physical and that is a very physical division. He will help them out. I also can't hardly wait to see the figures
