Cornerback Vontae Davis says the opportunity to play in a
talented young secondary is what eventually drew him to sign a one-year contract
with the Buffalo Bills.
Davis also says he's put behind last year's dispute with former Colts coach
Chuck Pagano that eventually led to Indianapolis cutting him in early November.
The 29-year-old Davis called it "one of those unfortunate situations Chuck Foreman
Jersey ," and is focused on moving forward.
He spoke during a conference call Friday, three days after signing with
Buffalo.
Davis referred to the Bills as being "a perfect fit." The nine-year NFL
veteran called it "intriguing" to join a secondary made up of safeties Micah
Hyde and Jordan Poyer and cornerback Tre'Davious White, a Defensive Rookie of
the Year contender last season.
Hyde and Poyer had five interceptions each, and White four as Buffalo
finished tied for sixth in the NFL with 18 interceptions.
Davis' five-plus-season tenure with the Colts ended after he publicly
complained about how the team handled his demotion to a backup role. Pagano said
the decision wasn't injury related. Davis disputed that by saying his drop in
production was directly linked to a groin tear that occurred during a preseason
game.
Davis elected to have surgery after he was cut.
He says he was cleared to resume working out two weeks ago, but isn't sure if
he'll be able to fully participate once the Bills start practicing in May.
The Bills have a need at cornerback with starter E.J. Gaines and backups
Leonard Johnson and Shareece Wright all set to become free agents in two
weeks.
Davis entered the NFL as a first-round pick of the Miami Dolphins before
being traded to the Colts for a second-round pick in 2012. He has started 113 of
120 games, with 342 tackles, 97 passes defensed and 22 interceptions.
DETROIT (AP) — Sam Darnold rolled right and made a rookie move, lobbing a
football across the field that was picked off and returned for a touchdown.
It might’ve been his only mistake all night.
Darnold made a stellar debut after throwing a pick-6 on his first NFL snap,
and the New York Jets intercepted five passes and also scored on special teams
in a 48-17 rout over the Detroit Lions on Monday night.
The 21-year-old Darnold became the youngest quarterback to start a season
opener since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger Kerry Wynn
Jersey , and looked his age on the first play.
“Licking my chops a little bit too much, I think, on that play,” he said
Quandre Diggs intercepted his ill-advised pass and returned it 37 yards for a
touchdown 20 seconds into the game.
“On that interception, I was pretty nervous,” Darnold said. “After that, I
put it behind me.”
The former USC star, drafted No. 3 overall, shook off the nerves and finished
16 of 21 for 198 yards and two touchdowns . He is the first quarterback to win
his first start by 31 or more points since Tom Brady in 2001 Chris Conte
Jersey , per ESPN Stats & Info.
“He didn’t flinch,” Jets coach Todd Bowles said. “He didn’t even blink.”
Darnold helped the Jets set a franchise record for points on the road,
surpassing the 47 they scored in 1967 against the Boston Patriots.
He also outplayed 30-year-old Matthew Stafford.
Stafford threw four interceptions — one shy of his career high — and left the
game briefly in the third quarter after being hit from the front and back by the
swarming, hard-hitting Jets.
“We wanted to make sure we came out and made a statement in this game,” New
York linebacker Darron Lee said.
Stafford was 27 of 46 for 286 yards and a TD pass to Golden Tate early in the
third quarter to tie it at 17. He was mercifully taken out midway through the
fourth quarter and replaced by Matt Cassel with Detroit down 31.
“Story of the game’s turnovers, you know?” he asked. “We had too many of
them, I had too many of them.”
The Jets dominated in all phases.
They scored 31 straight in the third quarter to pull away, sending Detroit’s
fans for the exits and setting off a jolly green party in the Motor City. It was
the highest-scoring third quarter in team history and trailed only the 34-point
second quarter the Brett Favre-led team scored in 2008 against Arizona.
New York scored on the ground and through the air, on defense and on a punt
return by former Lion Andre Roberts. The Jets could’ve piled on even more in the
final minutes but turned the ball over on downs after kneeling to take time off
the clock. Darnold flipped the ball to a referee after the final kneel
down Bryan
Witzmann Jersey , and the official gave it right back before
shaking the rookie’s hand. Darnold was still holding the ball while talking
briefly with Stafford on the field.
Detroit coach Matt Patricia, meanwhile, will want to forget his debut as an
NFL head coach.
“We’ve got to coach this a lot better than what we did,” he said. “We’ve got
to go out and exec |
