BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) – Fred Jackson had even more reason to be upbeat on Wednesday.
While the Buffalo Bills running back traveled to New York City to be presented with the Jefferson Award for Public Service, Jackson’s team was busy stocking up on talent.
”Oh yeah,” Jackson told The Associated Press by phone before attending the award ceremony.
”Knowing that we’re making some moves to win this season and being honored for an accomplishment off the field, it’s one of those things where I’ll enjoy this week as long as I can.”
He’s counting on the good vibes lasting well into next season after the Bills agreed to two trades in less than 24 hours to shore up needs on offense. A day after acquiring Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy, they landed Minnesota Vikings backup quarterback Matt Cassel on Wednesday.
