Uncle Joe Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 (edited) Defense was definitely better when he was on the field last year. Hopefully Davis steps up in the regular season. Sorry to see EJ Gaines go down with an injury. Edited August 20, 2018 by Uncle Joe
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Significant knee injury are not threegood words in football
Steve O Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Wanted to resign him as well but some guys are just injury prone. Too bad for EJ, hopefully it isn't bad.

Mike in Horseheads Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Agree, he did make the defense better when he was playing last year
BuffaloRush Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Big knock on EJ was that he couldn’t stay healthy for an entire season. In his 3 years in the NFL he’s never played all 16 games.

Estelle Getty Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 (edited) He will be back on our team next year Edited August 20, 2018 by Estelle Getty

BrotherChazz Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Wasn't surprised to hear it. Though I was surprised he was only running with the second team there...
eball Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 While I thought he did a nice job for the Bills (when available) last year, Gaines just can't seem to stay healthy. That probably played significantly into Beane's analysis of whether or not to re-sign him and while I hate it for the player, I think Beane made the right decision.
John from Riverside Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Now ppl realize when Gaines was not brought back And yes...when he is on the field he is a stud
BillsFan4 Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Man, I feel for the guy. He just can’t seem to stay healthy.
Happy Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 EJ is solid when healthy; the problem is that his availability is spotty at best. I feel bad for the guy since he is an above average talent, but I'm also not surprised. This is why Beane and McD did not bring him back.
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 Apparently, EJ got Sammy’s body in the trade last year.
