Bills ban media from mentioning dropped passes, interceptions

Rex Ryan Bills

The Buffalo Bills released their new training camp media policy on Tuesday, and let’s just say it’s a strict one.

Many of the demands are standard. Reporters are forbidden from tweeting or writing about trick plays and special packages. They have also been told to not speculate about injuries that occur during portions of practice that are not open to the public. It gets a lot more interesting after that.

As Tyler Dunne of the Buffalo News notes, the media is banned from mentioning when a receiver drops a pass or a quarterback throws an interception.

Here’s more of the incredibly strict policy:

In other words, not a word shall be tweeted about a player screwing up this summer. We have no idea how reporters can do their jobs under those circumstances.

For someone who loves to complain that the media is obsessed with Bill Belichick (here’s a great example of that), Rex Ryan sure sounds like he is trying to be a lot like the New England Patriots coach this offseason.
