        I saw rumors that Kyle Williams might be done for the year too. Too bad for Merriman, but it seemed inevitable. Let's just hope the extra time helps our young OLB's and we can find someone to rush the passer this offseason.

            Sucks, but it's not like he was doing much anyway.

              Bring Eddins or Coleman back, possibly?

                    Thanks for the memories, Shawne!

                    That preseason game vs Chicago was EPIC!!!

                      Malingering again. The bum just wants a check.

                        Not surprised, but also not upset that the Bills gave it a shot. It was a low-risk, high reward move that just doesn't look like it's going to work out.

                              Doubtful.

                              His contract has a split rate and his salary drops to $500K while on IR. His salary was $2.75M for the first 7 weeks.

                              Now his weekly pay drops from $161,765 to $29.412. Over the final 10 weeks of the season he will make about $1.324M less than what he would have. I doubt he would malinger when it costs him that much money. Last thing he wanted was to go on IR.
