Bills head coach Rex Ryan has had plenty to say about Buffalo’s offseason to date. Here are some highlights from his press conferences.
Rex Ryan’s opening statement following the loss to New England:
RR: All right. Obviously you know we weren’t good enough. The better team won today without question. We made way too many mistakes, mistakes we haven’t made all season and against a guy like (Tom) Brady, he makes you pay any time you have a mistake and we knew that going in and he was true to form, but we didn’t deserve to win by any stretch. The Patriots deserved it and they won the game, without question.
Q: Was that the most discouraging thing? Because it looked like last year in terms of mistakes and just not being smart.
RR: I guess it was similar, I don’t know. It was without question frustrating. You get them backed way up on the 3rd-and-long and we blow a coverage that ... it’s just 10 guys playing one thing and somebody else playing something else. And even if you’re not singing out of the same hymnal, it looks bad and sounds bad and everything else.
Q: Was that the (Chris) Hogan play, the touchdown, that you’re referring to right now?
RR: Yeah, we just ... obviously we blew an assignment and they executed the play and so, you know, bad result.
Q: You said on Monday that if you lose this game, it doesn’t break your season but hopefully it isn’t something you worry about. You said you hope you don’t have to worry about it.

ALLEN GETS HISTORIC DEAL
Bills QB now under contract through 2028
Right back in the swing of things
It’s fair to say that this year’s Bills training camp looks wildly different from those of the past.
1st & Ten with STEFON DIGGS
Stefon Diggs had one of the best seasons ever by a Bills receiver in 2020, and he’s looking for an encore. Diggs was clearly amped up and ready to go as the Bills began their preparations for the new season, leading the huddle and supporting his teammates as they kicked off training camp in Orchard Park. Diggs recently touched on his goals for the upcoming season for both himself and the team in an informative discussion with members of the media. Here are the highlights from that discussion.
RUNNING BACKS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS
Aaron Jones, Packers 5-9 • 208 pounds • 27 years old A fifth-round steal in the 2017 draft out of UTEP, Jones is equally proficient in the running and passing games. He rushed for more than 1,000 yards the last two years, and caught 49 and 47 passes, respectively. He’s also a touchdown machine with 30 TDs the last two years (25 rushing and 5 receiving). The son of two career Army officers, he’s a tough, driven player and the kind of guy players want on their team.
THE RIGHT STUFF?
Keeping two important starters is a priority as the right side of the O-line hits free agency
QUARTERBACKS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS
Dak Prescott, Cowboys 6-2 • 235 pounds • 27 years old A solid starter who has a nice TD-INT ratio over his first five seasons (104-40), Prescott is an accurate thrower and very mobile. However, he’s coming off a compound fracture and dislocation of his right ankle, so it remains to be seen if this will impact his game moving forward.
TIGHT ENDS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS
Hunter Henry, Chargers 6-5 • 250 pounds • 29 years old A very talented player, Henry has had issues staying healthy, unable to complete an NFL season, including missing the entire 2018 season with a torn ACL. But when healthy, he’s a terrific all-around tight end who really connected with Justin Herbert in 2020 with 60 catches. Henry is very good at finding holes in zone coverage.
