Terrelle Pryor critical of how Jets used him
Terrelle Pryor has left the New York Jets behind him, but he still has a few grievances with how things were handled.
Pryor felt he was “underused” by the Jets, who did not make the most of his skillset.
“I can ball,” Pryor said, via Mike Rodak of ESPN. “I can ball, bro. I’m not being cocky. I just know how I study, how I work, and how I practice. I compete at a high level. I expect high things from myself.”
The new Buffalo Bill added that he felt the Jets used his injury as a convenient excuse to let him go.
“Let’s shut that one down how I was [going to be] out for five or six games,” Pryor said. “I was going to miss a game, and then I got cut. So I guess, I don’t know if I wasn’t a part of their plan, or whatever it was.”
Pryor was a surprising and abrupt release by the Jets, who apparently had interest in bringing him back. After just 22 targets in six games, that feeling does not appear to have been mutual.
