We don't have a returner. 

With all the new rules neutering the return game is it really that crucial?

 

How many kick offs get returned?

 

Pretty much need someone to fair catch on punts most times. Micah Hyde has sure hands.

 

I'm just trying to look on the bright side😊

Not sure why we never got Hines involved in the passing game more (to beat a dead horse). 

 

Because by the time they needed to throw the ball underneath more they were:

 

1) Using James Cook more in that role and getting 5.7 yards per carry

 

2) Allen was struggling with more with short throw accuracy than long throws due to his elbow injury

 

The only RB in the NFL who might be as good as an actual starting slot WR running routes is McCaffrey.   And even then we aren't talking exceptional in that regard.  Otherwise these guys gotta' run the ball to warrant receiver looks.    They aren't the equivalent of slot WR's regardless of the hyperbole people want to attach to their games.

Bills could probably go after money but I doubt it.

 

 

 

 

So definitely non-football injury and probably more of an insurance matter than the Bills being on the hook for any of his salary and yes, they can probably......and should.......go after the bonus for cap space.

It appears that the Bills would suffer a $1.5M dead cap while gaining $2M in cap if they were to cut him. That's really not much of a dead cap. Now, I think they will more than likely just IR him...but being he was injured working out away from team activities may open the door for a release.

It is $1.5M more than $0

I would imagine sitting stationary on a jet ski is not an activity that involved significant risk.

 

If he got hurt in a car accident would they be trying to get money from him?

 

Hopefully the Bills will not go after any of his salary. That would be a bad look.
