T.J. Yeldon will no longer have the specter of Leonard Fournette ahead of him on the depth chart. Instead, he’ll be looking at LeSean McCoy and Frank Gore as the Buffalo Bills added the former Alabama standout to an already crowded backfield on a two-year contract Monday. Last season, Yeldon started five games for the Jacksonville Jaguars and appeared in 14, rushing 104 times for 414 yards and a touchdown. He added 55 catches, 487 yards and four scores through the air.
We’ve signed RB TJ Yeldon to a two-year deal. #GoBills

Of how The Business of football works. You are consistently evaluated everyday, every game and if you are reliable and or healthy enough to play. I know at times as players and fans it can be confusing to move on from a beloved player but due to the business of health

And trust tough decisions are usually made. Maybe people just didn’t like it because it’s coming from me or I answered a question from one of the talents on the radio the way you didn’t agree with. If that’s how you feel I’m sorry you feel that way. It’s
