    Whitner's exit

    Whitner’s exit

    Posted by Chris Brown on January 3, 2011 – 4:01 pm

    Bills free agent safety to be Donte Whitner was nowhere to be found during locker clean out at One Bills Drive Monday. The former first-round pick looked to be long gone with his locker completely bare including his name plate at the top, which was disappointing to see as far as his head coach was concerned.
    “Tenuous would be a word you could use there,” said Chan Gailey when asked about Whitner’s future with the organization. “I didn’t realize that until I was told that a few minutes ago that that had happened. He’s a really good player. You’d love to have him on your football team, but we’re in a business where that doesn’t happen every time. We’ll wait and see what happens.”
    When asked Whitner’s apparent intentions to exit quickly Gailey said the following.
    “You don’t what kind of advice these guys get,” he said.
    Here was Whitner’s bare locker late this morning. It’s the one on the left.



    Can't say I expected any class in his departure...

    He wants elite safety money. He's not an elite safety. We can do worse at the position, but we can also do better. It's just part of the business. If in fact he is no longer on the roster next season then I wish him luck.

      He's as good as gone. If the whispers of his contract demands are true, then I have no problem with this. Wilson at SS is not a huge drop-off, imo. Good luck to him wherever he goes.

        To be fair, the fans haven't treated him that well either, feelings were mutual on both sides.

        Move on, hope he does better somewhere else. Don't want to wish ill on anyone.

            First reaction is that I feel bad for the guy. Been on such a mismanaged team for his whole career, probably still pretty emotional after getting trashed again yesterday, if he wanted to make a quiet and quick exit today, so what?

              I'm sure Donte will tell us all about it on twitter and as an aside, God will be mentioned about once for each interception he's ever had.

                That is the quickest he has ever moved.

                          That won't take many keystrokes to write.

                              Snyder's dumbass will probably overpay him.
