What happened to EJ Manuel in Buffalo? More than anyone ever knew

In 2013, Buffalo Bills GM Buddy Nix drafted EJ Manuel 16th overall to be the team's long-lost savior at the position. So, what happened? His story runs deeper than you think.

Jim Monos, our pod co-host, was in the room as the team's director of personnel when the Bills told Manuel he was being benched shortly into Year 2.

For the first time ever, Manuel explains what went through his head after that conversation. He entered a dark, dark place mentally and never was able to get his career back on track.

I think everyone will enjoy this candid conversation with the former starting quarterback in Buffalo. It absolutely relates to rookie quarterbacks today, too.
