Not even on playoff roster right now. Could've seen more money and playing time else where.

Did he choose them or did they choose him? I don't think his phone was ringing off the hook.

You think he just sat around all season waiting on a phone call from the bills specifically?

He needs to get with an elite trainer if he wants to play again

With his measurables and talent there is no excuse for him to not be on a roster somewhere

Said he had offers from other teams interested. Felt his best opportunity was the bills. I believe Patriots were interested before elliot

How much does the guy have left? He's old in RB years and he's not a regular as of now.

He's made about $15million or so.

He'll be fine assuming he puts his money in the right places.

A phone call, which no one else gave him.

Bills lost Damien Harris for the season, and Ty Johnson, who’s been in the system since the beginning of the season moved up from the practice squad, so that left a PS spot open for Fournette.

He’s not very good anymore. He’s already had a longer career than the average NFL RB.

I love Fournette, but I'm not sure if he'll get another opportunity after Buffalo.

While not to the level we all expected he still had a good NFL career and got a SB win.

Crazy that they didn’t lean on him today - this was the perfect type of game to go full Les Miles and give him 20+ rushes to break the defense in bad weather.

Agreed, 1,000 carries & 300 receptions, 7k yards and 40 tds is a nice career. Still seems like he left a lot on the table though ....

He trained at U of Wyoming. Maybe he and Josh Allen have crossed paths and become friends over the years.
