AFC East Notes: Bills, Dolphins, Jets, Patriots

Bills

The Bills signed QB Matt Barkley to a two-year extension on Friday.

“It’s worked out pretty well,” Barkley said of his new deal, via Buffalobills.com. “At the outset of the season I was injured and got released and was sitting on my couch at home not knowing what the future held. But at the same time I kept working and staying confident and worked to get back on the field. To see the extension today and knowing I have a future with the Bills and knowing it’s a place I really want to be… I love this team and this organization and the QB room we have, it’s really, really special.”

Jets

Jets WR Robby Anderson says he feels like he’s been a No. 1 receiver for New York the past few seasons.

“I feel like that’s what I’ve been,” Anderson said, via the New York Post. “That’s what I was last year. That’s what I’ve proven myself to be. People are going to say what they want to say. There’s always going to be doubters and critics.”

Anderson added that he wants to be part of the Jets’ turnaround.

“I want to be a part of the uprising and the transformation,” Anderson said.
