Kelly: Do or die for Losman
The Bills have been searching for a worthy successor for Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly since his retirement after the 1997 season. While he likes the strides Losman has made over the past year, Kelly believes this season will determine whether Losman is for real.
“This year is going to be a big year for him. I think it’s going to define whether he’s going to be here or not,” Kelly said during his visit to practice Friday morning. “He’s had a couple of years that he did all right and came on at the end of last year. But this is his year to show whether he’s going to be the quarterback of the future or a guy that’s just going to be here and is going to move on to another team next year. He realizes that, not just from the standpoint of being a leader on this football team but his contract. I hope he does well. “He’s a good kid and he works hard.”
Kelly does believe Losman has good physical tools and is surrounded with enough talent to succeed.
