Buffalo Rumblings
Buffalo Bills players have taken to social media and contacting their media member of choice to share their thoughts on the unexpected firing of head coach Sean McDermott. We likely won’t see anyone calling out the organization explicitly, but McDermott seemed to be well-liked by his players, so there will some pushback at least in the early stages.

“True leader amongst a world full of alphas’s , Honored and Truly Best to learn under our Time. McDeezzyyyy You Are Truly One Of them Ones. Until The Grass Meets us Again” wrote Dawkins with a broken heart emoji.
