Irsay just said a couple days ago (on July 27th) that “We haven’t exchanged any contract numbers with each other or anything like that. So, it's not like we're in the midst of that.” https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/38085290/running-back-comment-not-aimed-jonathan-taylor Edited July 31, 2023 by BillsFan4 1 Quote

Expand I don't know if he's lying but I do know 2 things for sure about this. 1. Taylor was reported to being on the "RB Video Call" where they discussed exaggerating injuries to their benefit (still don't see how that would help their case) 2. Back injuries are amoung the trickiest to prove or disprove. 1 Quote

mjt328 Posted July 31, 2023 Posted July 31, 2023 I've never been happier NOT to have a star running back. Now in addition to them being the worst value on the roster, they are becoming a massive off-field distraction. I'm perfectly happy rolling into the season with James Cook, Damien Harris and Latavius Murray, and letting other teams deal with the mess. 3 Quote
Chicken Boo Posted July 31, 2023 Posted July 31, 2023 On one hand, RBs are worthless and should be paid pennies in relation to their production. On the other, Jonathan Taylor is so good we will not entertain his trade request because our team is sunk without him. Make up your minds. Quote

They are sunk either way at least next year. Quote
aristocrat Posted July 31, 2023 Posted July 31, 2023 I'd imagine Taylor will be filing a grievance against the team. Somebody leaking info like that is no bueno. 1 Quote
