Fri, 31 May 2013 11:26:08 -0700 Buffalo Bills head coach Doug Marrone has praised rookie QB EJ Manuel during organized team activities. "From my standpoint ... EJ Manuel has done better (as a rookie) than any of the other organizations I've been a part of," Marrone said. Fantasy Tip: Despite the fact that Manuel has been working with the third-team offense during OTAs this month, he could surpass both Kevin Kolb and Tarvaris Jackson later this summer if he performs well. Manuel's value will be highest in dynasty leagues in his rookie season. Relying on whichever Bills passer wins the job as a backup isn't recommended.
Thu, 30 May 2013 06:05:15 -0700 Buffalo Bills QBs Kevin Kolb and Tarvaris Jackson are splitting reps with the first team in OTAs, and QB EJ Manuel is working as the third-stringer. Fantasy Tip: It's still premature, but we could see Manuel leapfrogging both of them by Week 1. Kolb and Jackson have very little fantasy value, and Manuel probably doesn't have a lot outside of dynasty leagues in his rookie campaign, either. Monitor the situation and see how well he picks up the offense.
Mon, 20 May 2013 10:14:07 -0700 Buffalo Bills QB EJ Manuel said it has been easy to pick up the team's offense, which he said is less complicated than the system he learned at Florida State. "The funny thing is it's easier to learn than the offense I had at Florida State," he said. "It's a true West Coast-type progression offense. That's really what I wanted when I was coming through the pre-draft process. I wanted something that I could just go in and say 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, check it down and run it. That's it, it's that simple. I love it." Manuel has spent extensive time working with offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett. Fantasy Tip: Manuel will compete with Kevin Kolb and Tarvaris Jackson for the starting QB job this summer. If Manuel wins it, consider him a weak backup quarterback in just his rookie season. Manuel could be a decent signal caller in the long term, but Buffalo will need a proven receiver opposite Stevie Johnson in order to make a significant impact.
Mon, 13 May 2013 13:22:28 -0700 Buffalo Bills QB Tarvaris Jackson received the first snaps during organized team activities Monday, May 13. He was followed by QB Kevin Kolb and EJ Manuel. Head coach Doug Marrone said the quarterback rotation likely will change daily.
Wed, 01 May 2013 09:31:24 -0700 Buffalo Bills head coach Doug Marrone indicated QBs EJ Manuel, Kevin Kolb and Tarvaris Jackson will split reps with the first-team offense once offseason workouts begin.
Sat, 20 Apr 2013 09:39:34 -0700 Buffalo Bills QB Kevin Kolb said the team's up-tempo offense will help the younger players because they will not have to think as much. "The best thing to me that tempo does," Kolb said, "is that it relaxes the mind of the players and they can just do what they've been doing their entire life. A big problem, especially for young players at this level, is they slow down because they're thinking too much. If you get them into a no-huddle, you get them into a quick style of offense, then they're just reading and reacting. When you're reading and reacting you're playing at your highest level and that's when you make a lot of great plays."
Wed, 10 Apr 2013 12:32:08 -0700 Buffalo Bills QB Kevin Kolb does not think he gets sacked too much, and talked about how he should not have that label placed on him. "No, because the label only came from really my stint in Arizona," Kolb said at Monday's introductory news conference at One Bills Drive. "When I was in Philly for however many games I started -- I don't even know -- I can remember going multiple games without maybe getting hit four or five times."
Tue, 09 Apr 2013 08:14:21 -0700 Buffalo Bills head coach Doug Marrone said the addition of QB Kevin Kolb does not mean the team will not look at quarterback prospects in the NFL Draft. "I do not think it really is going to change the philosophy on the draft," Marrone said. "I think that when the position comes whatever is best for our team to get better I think we will go ahead and choose that player whoever it may be. I think that rather than trying to, and I do not want to speak for Buddy (Nix) or anyone else in the organization, rather than trying to reach or go somewhere that you do not want to go you bring the best players you can bring in and you make those guys compete. You are a better football team."
Tue, 09 Apr 2013 07:31:07 -0700 Buffalo Bills QB Kevin Kolb said he believes he can help the team win a Super Bowl title. "I'm here to win the Super Bowl. Period," Kolb said. "For me it was just straight, 'Hey, how can I go win, how can I go be successful.'" The Bills have the longest active postseason drought in the league at 13 consecutive seasons.
Mon, 08 Apr 2013 06:50:51 -0700 Updating previous reports, the Buffalo Bills have officially signed QB Kevin Kolb.
Mon, 01 Apr 2013 11:17:36 -0700 Buffalo Bills QBs Kevin Kolb and Tarvaris Jackson may compete for one roster spot during training camp if the team drafts a quarterback that they believe can be their franchise quarterback. Kolb's contract is expected to be worth up to $13 million over two years, and there is minimal downside if the team chooses not to keep him.
Sun, 31 Mar 2013 12:19:21 -0700 Buffalo Bills QB Kevin Kolb likely will have an edge over QB Tarvaris Jackson for the starting quarterback job because his contract is expected to be worth as much as $13 million.
Sat, 30 Mar 2013 18:24:09 -0700 The Buffalo Bills have agreed to terms with free-agent QB Kevin Kolb (Cardinals) to a two-year deal worth as much as $13 million. Fantasy Tip: Kolb likely will compete with Tarvaris Jackson and possibly a draft choice for the starting quarterback position. Even if he wins the starting job, he would not be more than a weak No. 2 or a No. 3 fantasy quarterback.
Sat, 30 Mar 2013 16:08:55 -0700 The Buffalo Bills are close to a deal with free-agent QB Kevin Kolb (Cardinals).
Sat, 30 Mar 2013 10:06:40 -0700 The Oakland Raiders have discussed the possibility of signing free-agent QB Kevin Kolb (Cardinals).
Fri, 29 Mar 2013 10:46:01 -0700 The Buffalo Bills are showing interest in free-agent QB Kevin Kolb (Cardinals). Fantasy Tip: Kolb likely would compete for the starting job if he joined the Bills. Kolb probably would be nothing more than a weak No. 2 or No. 3 fantasy quarterback if he won the job.
Tue, 19 Mar 2013 12:18:09 -0700 New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan did not rule out the possibility of the team signing free-agent QB Kevin Kolb (Cardinals) at some point this offseason. "If we think that's something that will help competition, I'm sure that's something we'll look at," Ryan said.
Tue, 19 Mar 2013 07:47:35 -0700 New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan said the team may consider signing free-agent QB Kevin Kolb (Cardinals). "If we think that can help the situation, then I guarantee you we'll look at it," Ryan said.
Sat, 16 Mar 2013 12:16:54 -0700 The Buffalo Bills are not expected to show interest in impending free-agent QB Kevin Kolb (Cardinals) because they likely will look at the draft to add a quarterback.
Fri, 15 Mar 2013 08:54:49 -0700 Updating a previous report, free-agent QB Kevin Kolb (Cardinals) could return, as the team left the door open for his return.
Fri, 15 Mar 2013 08:49:59 -0700 The Arizona Cardinals announced Friday, March 15, they have released QB Kevin Kolb.
Thu, 14 Mar 2013 16:30:14 -0700 The New York Jets could show interest in Arizona Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb if the Cardinals decide to release him this offseason.
Thu, 14 Mar 2013 07:46:53 -0700 The Arizona Cardinals are expected to release QB Kevin Kolb over the next few days. He is due a roster bonus of $2 million March 17, which he reportedly will not see.
Wed, 13 Mar 2013 17:33:22 -0700 The Arizona Cardinals signed QB Drew Stanton Wednesday, March 13, which casts even more doubt on the future of QB Kevin Kolb in Glendale. The team now has four quarterbacks under contract, and they owe Kolb a $2 million bonus if he is on the roster Saturday, March 16. Fantasy Tip: It appears Kolb's days are numbers in Arizona. He'll likely latch on with another organization, but he will likely find himself as a backup somewhere else. Unless he unexpectedly lands a starting job for 2013, he can mostly be ignored for fantasy purposes.
Mon, 04 Mar 2013 16:20:13 -0800 The Arizona Cardinals have not had talks with the agent for QB Kevin Kolb about restructuring his contract. Kolb is due a $9 million dollar roster bonus on Mar. 17, so it is expected those talks will begin soon.
Thu, 28 Feb 2013 17:37:27 -0800 Updating a previous report, the Arizona Cardinals could show interest in Kansas City Chiefs QB Matt Cassel if he is released but would also like to keep QB Kevin Kolb on the roster because head coach Bruce Arians likes him. Cassel likely would not be able to win the starting job because his struggles with deep passes would not fit the team's new offensive system.
Thu, 28 Feb 2013 11:26:49 -0800 The Arizona Cardinals are interested in keeping QB Kevin Kolb at a reduced salary but it is not known if Kolb is willing to take a pay cut.
Tue, 12 Feb 2013 11:25:17 -0800 Arizona Cardinals team president Michael Bidwell said the team is probably going to need to address QB Kevin Kolb's contract in the offseason. Kolb is scheduled to make $11 million in 2013, a number that many feel is high considering Kolb has not outright won the starting job. "Kevin's contract is probably something we're going to need to address," Bidwell said. "It's a big number and given the productivity and the questions about durability and everything, that's something that I think the reality is we need to sit down and discuss."
Tue, 12 Feb 2013 10:57:22 -0800 The New York Jets would be a logical target for Kevin Kolb if he is released by the Arizona Cardinals, according to Evan Silva of NBC Sports. Silva suggests that Kolb knows offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg's offense, and that offense fits Kolb's skill set.
Tue, 05 Feb 2013 12:15:53 -0800 Arizona Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb is reportedly willing to restructure his deal with the team to possibly include performance bonuses.
Fri, 01 Feb 2013 11:23:53 -0800 Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians said he believes QBs Kevin Kolb, John Skelton and Ryan Lindley have the arm strength to throw deep passes and does not think that will be a problem if one of them starts.
Thu, 31 Jan 2013 17:24:42 -0800 Arizona Cardinals president Michael Bidwell said head coach Bruce Arians will have the independence to make decisions on the team's quarterback position and that money will not be a factor in the decision. The team is scheduled to pay QB Kevin Kolb a $2 million signing bonus if he is on the roster in March and is scheduled to pay Kolb $9 million next season.
Sat, 26 Jan 2013 06:57:12 -0800 Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians said he is keeping an open mind when it comes to the quarterbacks on the team's roster. Arians will give QBs Kevin Kolb, John Skelton and Ryan Lindley an opportunity to earn the starting job; however, he is not opposed to an outside candidate earning the nod as well. "I'm sure that (general manager) Steve (Keim) and (vice president of player personnel) Jason (Licht) are going to be looking behind door number two," Arians said. "If door number two is a better option, we'll go to door number two." Arians said he's looking forward to meeting with all three quarterbacks but isn't in a rush to evaluate their chances at this point.
Sat, 19 Jan 2013 04:23:28 -0800 Arizona Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb will likely have to restructure his contract if he returns to the team in 2013. He is due $9 million, plus a $2 million roster bonus, in the coming year.
Tue, 01 Jan 2013 18:26:16 -0800 According to a source, head coach candidate Andy Reid's (Eagles) pitch to the Arizona Cardinals will be the potential to "fix (QB Kevin Kolb)." The team would like to keep Kolb if possible.
Sun, 23 Dec 2012 19:51:36 -0800 Arizona Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb (ribs) posted eight touchdowns and three interceptions before suffering a season-ending injury. Since, three quarterbacks have combined for just two touchdown passes and 21 interceptions.
Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:52:49 -0800 The Arizona Cardinals may decide to release QB Kevin Kolb following the 2012 season. Kolb has played just 15 of a possible 32 games for the team in his two seasons in the desert. "Clearly Arizona has to do something at the quarterback position, and more than likely I think they'll wipe themselves out after two years of the Kevin Kolb experiment," ESPN NFL insider John Clayton said. "I don't know if they move on Alex Smith or draft a quarterback, but they've got to do something."
Thu, 13 Dec 2012 11:20:05 -0800 The Arizona Cardinals have not talked with QB Kevin Kolb about restructuring his contract at this point. He is scheduled to make $9 million next season and is due a $2 million bonus if he is on the roster in March. Kolb hopes to remain with the team but would like the team to make a decision in his future quickly.
Wed, 12 Dec 2012 09:23:29 -0800 The Arizona Cardinals have placed QB Kevin Kolb (ribs) on Injured Reserve.
Mon, 10 Dec 2012 12:03:28 -0800 Arizona Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb (ribs) is unlikely to return in Week 15. Head coach Ken Whisenhunt has yet to say who his starting quarterback will be against the Detroit Lions.
Sun, 09 Dec 2012 12:13:38 -0800 The Arizona Cardinals have declared CB Jamell Fleming, QB Kevin Kolb, TE Kory Sperry, WR LaRon Byrd, OT Pat McQuistan, DE Ron Talley, OT Senio Kelemete inactive for Week 14.
Fri, 07 Dec 2012 14:16:19 -0800 Arizona Cardinals DE Calais Campbell (calf) and QB Kevin Kolb (ribs) were limited in practice Friday, Dec. 7, and are questionable for Week 14.
Thu, 06 Dec 2012 15:43:51 -0800 Arizona Cardinals DE Calais Campbell (calf), QB Kevin Kolb (ribs) and CB Greg Toler (hamstring) were limited in practice Thursday, Dec. 6.
Thu, 06 Dec 2012 13:00:02 -0800 Arizona Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb (ribs) has had his recovery slow lately, and he said his ribs still haven't completely healed. "Whenever the cartilage broke, (the ribs) are laying underneath my sternum. That's how they are trying to heal, rather than healing where it's butted up straight against it like a normal cracked rib, flush with each other, mine are laid underneath there. That's what extends the process." Kolb is optimistic that he will return this season, though.
Wed, 05 Dec 2012 18:04:34 -0800 Arizona Cardinals QB Kevin Kolb (ribs) has "hit a wall" in his rehab, but he did not sound optimistic that he will be able to return soon.
Wed, 05 Dec 2012 15:44:30 -0800 Arizona Cardinals DE Calais Campbell (calf), WR Early Doucet (ribs), QB Kevin Kolb (ribs), S Kerry Rhodes (quadriceps) and LB Reggie Walker (knee) were limited in practice Wednesday, Dec. 5.
