Goodwin Continues With Track And Field: Marquise Goodwin continues to dabble in the world of track and field. He finished in 4th place and had his best long jump time in the 2015 U.S. Outdoor Track and Field Championships two weeks ago. It was not enough to get him qualified for the World Championships. He said afterwards it was back to football for him but it appears not before he takes part in the Pan Am games. He has been selected to represent the United States in the long jump for those games in Toronto just a week before training camp begins.

Bills Sign OT Hunter: In a move that was very much expected the Bills have signed former Jets OT Wayne Hunter. He took the open roster spot created when the team released DE Bryan Johnson a week ago. He participated in the mandatory minicamp last month as a tryout player and Rex Ryan indicated they would sign him before training camp. Hunter had the most success of his career when he was with Ryan in New York but has been out of football the last two years. He has also had several off the field issues throughout his career. He is a former third round pick of the Seahawks in 2003 and was released in 2006 after being charged with misdemeanor assault. He was also arrested in 2003 for a assaulting his girlfriend. He has two suspensions in his past by the league for violating the personal conduct policy. He has 25 career starts in 77 games. Front Office Page.

Bills Release DE Johnson: The Bills opened up a spot on their 90 man roster by releasing DE Bryan Johnson. He was signed by the team as an undrafted free agent last offseason and spent the majority of the year on the practice squad. The open roster spot may be used to sign former Jets OT Wayne Hunter. He was in for a tryout during minicamp and Rex Ryan indicated he would be signed by the team before training camp. Depth Chart.

Brady Appeal: The commissioner will hear Tom Brady's appeal of his four game suspension for deflate gate today in New York. If more than a day is needed the appeal will be concluded on Thursday with a decision expected in a reasonable amount of time. That means Bills fans may know within a week or so if they will face the Patriots QB week two at Ralph Wilson Stadium. Most speculate the suspension will be reduced on appeal but will it be reduced all the way to one game or cut in half meaning he would still miss that pivotal game.

Goodwin Back To Track Roots: Marquise Goodwin is using his time off to get back to his roots. He is participating in this weekend's 2015 U.S. Outdoor Track and Field Championships. This appearance does not conflict with his duties with the Bills but if he finishes in the top three he would qualify for the World Championships. That would conflict with the end of training camp and the final preparations for the season as they take place August 22nd to 30th in China. It bring speculation that Goodwin is worried about his future with the Bills and the NFL in general. His world class speed has allowed him to flash some solid skills in the NFL but he has been unable to stay healthy in the first two years of his career and is certainly on the bubble as the team goes to training camp.
