Bills sign safety Kareem Jackson

[HappyDays]

36 years old, not sure how much juice he has left. Obviously they must have concerns at the position.

[Clyde Smith]

They might as well sign Hyde.

He’s retired.

Rapp and Jackson make a hard hitting duo!

[Dave_Bills]

At least they’re being proactive in looking at solutions

Mike Edwards is out probably until the end of August. Needed to fill that spot.

36 years old 😬

 

Hope this position doesn't become a concern all season. Maybe he can talk to simmons for us 🤣

Hyde doesn't seem interested in playing a full season if he plays. He says IF he plays it will be for the BIlls

Sounds to me he is looking at the 2nd half of the season and the Bills injury status at that time

Jackson is a vet but probably won't make the team

Worth noting he has a history of being a dirty player and getting suspended for it. But a ton of experience as a starter.

That was my hope. More for his character and backup than a starter.

 

Interesting pick up. Wonder where they see the depth problem?

 

Edit: As stampede mentioned, Mike Edwards out with hammy.

Edward’s injury

I know it's not the easiest system but we need Bishop to be a starter. You gotta get that kind of investment out of 2nd rounders at non premium positions.

We struggled there in 2022. Poyer was playing with one arm all year and Hyde was out all year.

 

It wouldn’t be new. We’re better off than that year.

I was wondering how I had heard of this guy before.
 

Strikes me as an anti-process guy.

Dirty player, and the penalties/suspensions for it were no longer offset by performance as he hit his mid-30s. I'm hoping he doesn't make the cut.

[BillsFooteball]

Interesting choice. If I recall he was ejected twice last year and suspended. Definitely physical veteran, maybe to much

Duh! He can unretire if he wants.

can he un-retire after training camp?  

I see a lot of "dirty player" comments.  Is he actually a "dirty player", or does he hit too hard for today's NFL.  Genuine question, I have no idea.  Either way, terrible to be putting your team in a situation by not playing within the rules.

Of course
