YoloinOhio Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Extra roster spot for 4 weeks. Jordan Gay?
BigBuff423 Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 he was 4th on the depth chart for OT and wasn't ready to play health wise anyway. However, given how good he looked in the last pre-season game, while he probably wouldn't have played in Baltimore, hard to believe he wouldn't make it back for one or more of the other important games. But, you're right...at this point, that's just speculation.
Blokestradamus Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Extra roster spot for 4 weeks. Jordan Gay? Don't toy with my emotions. Would absolutely ruin a piece I've got planned though
Dragonborn10 Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Kouandjio has looked good enough to play the swing tackle. If Mills sucks or went down it would be interesting to see if they move Glenn to RT due to reports Koundjio has looked better at LT. Maybe that is all non-sense too. He should appeal on principle alone but honestly four more weeks do eat and lift weights will do him well in the long run
26CornerBlitz Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 @john_wawrow Told #Bills Seantrel Henderson has elected to drop his appeal of 4-game suspension.
Coach Tuesday Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Again, he may just choose pot over football. I empathize with his situation but he's responsible for his choices and he keeps choosing pot.
Maury Ballstein Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Again, he may just choose pot over football. I empathize with his situation but he's responsible for his choices and he keeps choosing pot. Maybe he wants to live.
26CornerBlitz Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 @SalSports Seantrel Henderson's agent, Brian Fettner, is mad. Dropped appeal. This is via @AdamSchefter FB page:
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Smart move to drop it. He was going to need a few weeks anyway to get back into game shape.
MDH Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Smart move to drop it. He was going to need a few weeks anyway to get back into game shape. Exactly, if he appealed he'd end up missing more than the 4 games because it didn't look they'd they'd hear his appeal until after week 1 which he wasn't going to play in anyway.
Saxum Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Yes it is correct decision but he needs to find another way of dealing with issue if he wants to stay in NFL. A guy at work was let go for MJ use; he talked about it at work saying never an issue and he had a sure fire way of avoiding positive tests. He tried to claim it was 2nd hand smoke and they told him for amount of MJ found in system he'd have to living in house with constant smokers. Note: Still a Class I misdemeanor in Virginia.
KD in CA Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 @SalSports Seantrel Henderson's agent, Brian Fettner, is mad. Dropped appeal. This is via @AdamSchefter FB page: I wish they had appealed it; just because it would have raised the public consciousness of the issue and been one step on the long road to getting rid of these absurd suspensions for smoking pot.
NoSaint Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 I wish they had appealed it; just because it would have raised the public consciousness of the issue and been one step on the long road to getting rid of these absurd suspensions for smoking pot. You really think it would've gotten more attention than it did this week? It's a low tier player in a secondary market. If you want awareness, this is a spot for Rex to make noise (fines be damned). An appeal wasn't going to get it on the national radar by itself.
aristocrat Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 need to bring it up in the off season meetings. it was brought up this past year i believe so the winds are picking up

If you want awareness, this is a spot for Rex to make noise (fines be damned). An appeal wasn't going to get it on the national radar by itself. It's certainly possible. Social change doesn't happen on a roadmap. Certain specific events get noticed and push issues forward. You never know which events those might be. And I don't think it got much attention this week outside of Bills fandom.
PO16FFS Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 When I was teaching high school I often felt stressed about dealing with 30 kids in my classroom yelling and not behaving. I smoked many joints in the morning and after lunch.

That's the problem al- he appealed AND released a pretty stern statement and got no attention. It needed someone to be the face that was well known or more sympathetic than the dude with fails and off field incidents for years. If Rex and others worked ESPN for attention it would've had a shot (or SH had a better agent or...)
Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 It's official....he's out until Oct. 3rd. Rough sledding for those games, with Jets, Cards and Pats. Yikes... This is probably a Good Thing. If the assessment was, he was very very likely to lose his appeal, makes so much more sense to let the suspension happen now. It's essentially like giving the Bills an extra short-term IR-with-a-chance-to-return slot - except that now Henderson is in "one more strike and you're out" territory.
3rdand12 Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Maybe he could hit the steroid up and return with a vengeance ! Heck they are testing him for the reefers, back door those commies. just kidding of course. he is like on some needed steroid already and might be part of the test fail ? I do not advocate drugs, but i do wish this Kid could find some way to play football for the Bills. if not i just hope he can find good health and some happiness. At some point he might need to accept that This is probably a Good Thing. If the assessment was, he was very very likely to lose his appeal, makes so much more sense to let the suspension happen now. It's essentially like giving the Bills an extra short-term IR-with-a-chance-to-return slot - except that now Henderson is in "one more strike and you're out" territory. Which puts the Team in a tough situation for sure.
