Expand More likely Tanner Gentry getting covid/close contact and smooching Josh (just kidding on that last but) made the Bills think "oh ***** we better hang on to Mitch". But I could be wrong, I don't think they would have parted with Mitch for a pick, even a 2nd. I think they would have wanted to exchange the risk of downgrading at backup for a player who might help them NOW On 11/2/2021 at 8:48 PM, Motorin' said: So the NFL has just let him break every rule for an unvaxed player so far?

When have you seen him masked during interviews, on the side line? Expand Well, I've seen Josh unmasked doing interviews sitting next to Beasley, also unmasked. So either the NFL has decided it's OK for the players to do interviews unmasked and sitting right next to each other, or Mr. Toothgap quietly hauled his freight to the vaccination station. I dunno. I tend to agree with those who argued that the Bills were not going to sign Josh to a long-term deal this preseason unless he got vaxxed. Would suck to guarantee him money and then have him do a Dawkins or Sweeney. But who knows. Quote

IF something changed his mind (which I don't know), IMHO it would be his competitive nature coming to terms with the reality that he could take all personal precautions to avoid getting Covid and still get sidelined for a game by NFL rules if he's declared a close contact of someone who isn't as careful. He might think the rules suck, but they're still the rules and he'd still be sidelined. For a guy who said missing a game was more painful to him than playing on a broken leg was, that just might be a factor. On 11/2/2021 at 8:57 PM, BuffBillsForLife said: Is it Mitch time?

Brennan Huff Posted November 2, 2021 Posted November 2, 2021 Trubisky was never on the trade block. He was brought in as an insurance policy if Josh got hurt 1 Quote

Expand The theory is that when Fromm went on the Covid list, there was concern about an outbreak in the QB room thus we better not trade any of them. The fallacy there is that I don't believe the Bills signed Trubisky as their backup for Josh because they considered him as a potential trade piece 1 Quote
