    Good luck having anyone hire you after this. Not many companies want to hire a quitter.

    He probably got nicked a bit and simply didn't want to take a chance on sustaining a lifetime injury.

    All the money he has, sure doesn't mean as much if ya can't walk.

    In the 6 quarters Buffalo has played this season up till that halftime, they were outscored 75-9. Davis was like F this I'm out of here.

    Are the Bills the new Browns? Maybe for at least this season.
