It's possible it's under consideration, but I'd think if that decision was made then he'd been moved to the non-injury list and free up a roster spot. 2

Guy hasn't practiced in a while and may be hard pressed to play next day. McD seems to like to bring players back slowly as well. No time for that. Season might be on the line, he is playing. 2

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 Is Dawkins going to play for sure? What a Christmas miracle.

oldmanfan Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 If Star has had a family issue or such I get it. If it is him just not be motivated or concerned about Covid or something then hard to have any sympathy. But odds are we won’t find out what’s going on. Dawkins? The question is whether he feels physically well enough to play.

HamptonBillsfan Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 Now Dion, justify that Pro Bowl selection and shut down Judon+Co. If this gives Josh time in the pocket, it's pretty meaningful and the image of O-lineman playing out of position, especially after the Brown performance, is quite terrifying in the biggest game of the year. Bills 27 -17. 1
Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 Yay! Not that hes good but it better than the backups
BuffaloBillies Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 1 guy back improves 3 positions. LT, RT, RG 1 4 1

Hes not great but hes better than the alternative. Maybe they can move him next year or rework his contract but for right now we need him.
DrPJax Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 55 minutes ago, FireChans said: Players don’t miss games for personal reasons usually unless someone died. So that’s enough. Yeah , except he has missed several games this year. Normally with a death they mention that , esp as generous as the bills mafia is supporting players in that situation. Personal reason can be mental health related in a variety of fields, like depression, anxiety, substance abuse etc. This has been a gradually developing situation over a few days, not a typical death in the family situation where the reason is shrouded by team, press etc. imho, something else is going on , and I am just going on a hunch based on behavioral patterns with Starr , but I am sensing he is close to being done with football. Perhaps that personal reason is they are giving him time to decide if he wants to retire now or finish the season. Mcd is loyal and classy that way , and like they say , where’s there’s smoke……….He has missed quite a few games with vague descriptions of the injuries or reasons. If he had a loss in the family , my condolences. It’s unusual tho , most players won’t miss a huge season determining game , saying Their lost one would have wanted them to play , and it’s a way to honor their memory. Just saying , something seems out of the ordinary , and this guy might have lost his passion to play. An undisclosed personal illness where he wishes privacy would certainly be possible. I know it’s just speculation , but based on the fact he was one of the few Bills who readily opted out of last year. He’s older. , at some point you reach a wall where you just can’t keep doing it. Not Vontae like , yet, but I think warning signs are there. Just some thoughts, hope you all had a merry Christmas with healthy families! 1 1
