Bills players mostly quiet on Washington D.C., Capitol news

Buffalo Bills players who mentioned the Washington D.C. and Capitol riots include RB Zack Moss, LB Darron Lee, LB Andre Smith, WR Kenny Stills.

As the Capitol building in Washington D.C. was invaded on Wednesday, the eyes of the world were watching. Considering that, members of the Bills certainly knew what was going on as well like all of us.

In many cases under such extreme circumstances, those connected to the club, such as players, were quiet on the manner. To each their own on the situation at-hand. We’re not here to say what is right and wrong, just to bring to light reactions made by others.

Most current Bills players had little to say on what was unfolding. Truthfully, only two really posted anything from their own personal Twitter accounts.

One was linebacker and special teamer Andre Smith via Twitter:

In addition to his own message, Smith also re-tweeted or shared a message from another professional athlete, NBA player Kevin Love which called the situation at the Capitol an “absolute disgrace.”

Practice squad linebacker Darron Lee was the most-active player in terms of their social media. He sent out several message:

Like Smith, Lee also tossed out re-tweets from NBA players, such as one from Steph Curry and some other NFL players and analysts, such as Saints linebacker Demario Davis.

Along with Smith and Lee, two others kept their thoughts to re-tweets only. New wide receiver Kenny Stills, who’s very much involved with social issues as he was arrested protesting himself this past offseason in Louisville for questioning the death of Breonna Taylor, shared a message about U.S. history:

The other was rookie running back Zack Moss who sent out a couple re-tweets, including this:

Former Bills players also remained mostly silent. Those who did not included some only loosely associated with the team, such as Hall of Fame wide receiver Terrell Owners and linebacker Shawne Merriman:
