Travis Henry Wants Out Of Buffalo

Travis Henry wants out of Buffalo because he's unhappy with the prospect of spending another season as Willis McGahee's backup. "I want to go somewhere where I can be a starter and play, and be a big contributor," Henry said Monday, a day after the Bills' missed the playoffs with a season-ending 29-24 loss to Pittsburgh. Henry, who started for three years and has a year left on his contract, made it clear he wouldn't accept another season with a secondary role. "I'm a starter. I've been starting since I've been in this league," Henry said. "I know the role that I was given this year. I didn't like it, but I dealt with it." Asked whether he considered himself as good as gone, Henry said: "Yeah, most definitely." Henry added he's confident there are other teams that would be interested in acquiring him. Henry's comments aren't exactly surprising. In August, he said he would be unhappy if he lost his starting job, adding he expected the Bills to trade him or McGahee, Buffalo's first-round pick last year. Henry lost his starting position to McGahee in October after the Bills got off to a 1-5 start. McGahee, who missed his entire rookie season after blowing out his left knee in his final college game at Miami, was credited with sparking the Bills turnaround, in which the team won six straight and nine of 11 before Sunday's loss to Pittsburgh. Buffalo (9-7) was 9-2 with McGahee as a starter, and 7-0 when he rushed for 100 yards.

"Everybody is a star"...Sly and the Family Stone.

Here's to the Gibbs Redskins, where everybody plays, and if Brunnell wants to go star somewhere else, he can drop his contract in a can and leave with my best wishes.

That is, the winning teams will have lots of "lunch pail guys" who fill in, but don't set records.

Next year, the Redskins have to build a non-superstar offense, just like the defense.

Can Gibbs sell that? Yes, during the season. Now...the crunch, as agents roll into negotiate.
