There ya go.
The Bills cut a quarterback who wasn’t going to be their starter, but not the really expensive one.
According to Vic Carucci of the Buffalo News, the Bills have waived quarterback Matt Simms.
The former Jets project was clearly fourth behind the three-headed monster of Tyrod Taylor, Matt Cassel and EJ Manuel throughout the preseason, so that part of it isn’t necessarily a surprise.
It remains to be seen how many they keep, and whether Cassel is one of them after losing the starting job to Taylor. Cutting him would save them $4.15 million in base salary, but it would cost them face also, after trading a pair of picks to the Vikings for the veteran.
