He is one of the players signing autographs on the 3rd.

That's a nice gesture but it doesn't mean he's still "very much a part of the team."

Getting on the field and contributing while he's out there makes him part of the team.

if by "very much a part of the team" you mean he is still employed by the Bills, then yes, this is very true.

What I mean is if he was about to be released he wouldnt do stuff like this.

we had a 4th-rounder for him. anyone who says we should just cut him is an idiot.

we're not going to release him this year. We have no depth at DT. Maybe in the off-season if we find someone better, but not now.

As far as him signing autographs, I've had chats with someone on this message board who knows McCargo personally. He claims McCargo is a real nice guy, and I believe it.

So, my guess is that McCargo isn't going to let his frustrations with the FO keep him from doing things like signing autographs or doing charity work. It's not the fans' fault or the community's fault that the FO tried to trade him.

He's probably contractually obligated to appear at a certain number of events.

Your definition means the entire coaching staff is not part of the team.

Stop taking things way too literally. McCargo's job with the team involves getting on the field and making plays. The coaches have different responsibilities that do not require actually being on the field, therefore that particular criteria for contributing to the team will not be applied to them, just like McCargo is not expected to draw up plays.

I really didn't think I'd have to spell that out...

Coaches coach. Players play. If a player isn't playing . . . lets hope he is contributing in practice.

THat's great and all, but they're all on the team. Op didn't say anything about "players"

Plus, does that mean benchwarmers and other scrubs aren't part of the team unless they get to play?

You are splitting hairs. Yes he is still on the team. No he is not contributing like many expected. He is a disappointment.
