BLUE 1,026 Posted August 25, 2013 Per Rotoworld.com: The Buffalo News' Tim Graham reports the Bills fear Kevin Kolb's concussion may end his NFL career."And they're proceeding with that in mind," Graham writes. It's really not surprising because Kolb has suffered numerous NFL concussions and become increasingly slow to recover. The Bills are left with Matt Leinart, UDFA Jeff Tuel, and Thad Lewis behind E.J. Manuel, who is also on the shelf with a knee scope. The Bills are going to end up rushing back Manuel, in all likelihood, to start Week 1. Kolb signed a two-year, $6.1 million contract in March that contained $1 million guaranteed. He's likely headed for injured reserve.

RazorStar 4,025 Posted August 26, 2013 Don't rush Manuel back, Tuel is the future in Buffalo. He's like Doug Flutie mixed with Jim Kelly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC 331 Posted August 26, 2013 The injury he suffered while walking to training camp was fucking hilarious. To think AZ traded two firsts for the guy Direct TV should make more commercials. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bucman 891 Posted August 26, 2013 Jeff Tuel has looked good enough to start at least 1 game if Manuel can't go. Not like the Bills are going anywhere this year anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bay 2,003 Posted August 26, 2013 The injury he suffered while walking to training camp was fucking hilarious. To think AZ traded two firsts for the guy Direct TV should make more commercials. Well it was DRC and a 2nd that went to the Eagles. Not sure who ended up being the player from that pick the Eagles got. Either way, the Cardinals are a joke.

JetsFan4Life 542 Posted August 26, 2013 Don't rush Manuel back you losers. All reports since he got hurt were that he would more than likely be ready to go for Week 1 so I'm not sure they'd be rushing him back if he were to start opening day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadcastinMayne 2 Posted August 26, 2013 Well it was DRC and a 2nd that went to the Eagles. Not sure who ended up being the player from that pick the Eagles got. Either way, the Cardinals are a joke. Ya that was maybe the biggest mistake the organization (besides signing Mr. Emmitt Smith) has ever made. DRC should be shouting down fields with Peterson, Wilson, and Kerry Rhodes if it was up to me ahaha. But the complete organization a joke? That would meen your boys are at the same level cause almost every Sunday AZ vs SF hit the same field its gonna be good ole smash mouth rivarly football, and you never really know whats going to happen.

Dutch 874 Posted August 26, 2013 This sucks for Kolb. His entire career has been injury plagued and he couldn't get a break. But the bright side is that he made a lot of money doing completely nothing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanbrock 1,684 Posted August 26, 2013 Hopefully he doesn't suffer any permanent damage and he can go on to live a quality life. Like dutch said, he's got a lot of money so he should be good. He can just play golf and go back to the farm for the rest of his life lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JetsFan4Life 542 Posted August 26, 2013 Some notes from Doug Marrone's press conference today. - Kolb will be "out for some time" but has not considered retirement. - Bills are hoping Manuel will be ready to go vs. Patriots but are currently planning for Jeff Tuel to start Week 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Turry 755 Posted August 26, 2013 Speaking Monday, Bills coach Doug Marrone said Kevin Kolb (concussion) will focus on getting healthy before considering retirement.Kolb has only officially been ruled out for Week 1, but he's expected to miss the entire season. Even if Kolb opts against retirement, his medicals might make the decision for him. Much like Jahvid Best and Laurent Robinson, he's going to struggle to find teams willing to clear him.
