Gibbons Gone: John Kryk of the Toronto Sun reports that the Bills have fired Tom Gibbons as the director of pro player personnel. He has held that position since 2011 and his contract was set to expire in June.
Staff At Senior Bowl: Rex Ryan is in Mobile Alabama at the Senior Bowl. He hopes to finish off his coaching staff by the end of the week and the Senior Bowl is the place to do just that as many assistants will be interviewing for jobs across the league. Ryan is also using the week to get to know the scouting staff. He doesn't know a single scout on the team and he was hoping to remedy that last night as the scouts and coaches met for dinner. The game is on Saturday.
