The Facts: The Bills cut Cassel last week, because he was too expensive to keep as a backup. They have ostensibly found a way to make it more affordable. According to Vic Carucci of the Buffalo News, the Bills have brought the veteran backup back into the fold.
Diehards Line:
No terms were announced, but as PFT suggests, there’s no way it was for the same $4.15 million he was due to make this season. The fact they gave him a $500,000 roster bonus already may have helped the negotiation along. In addition, HC Rex Ryan told reporters that Cassel will be the No. 2 behind starter Tyrod Taylor and ahead of EJ Manuel.
