ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- As Hurricane Irma churns toward Florida with effects from the category 5 storm expected to impact the state this weekend, several Buffalo Bills players with family or other interests in the region are keeping an eye on the forecast.
Here is what was said about Hurricane Irma in the Bills' locker room Thursday:
Guard John Miller (hometown Miami): "Some [family] did take precautions -- went to prepare, got a bunch of water and shelters and stuff for the house. But I actually do have a couple of my closest family members actually on a 15-passenger van packed up heading to Georgia, just trying to get out of dodge for a couple of days.
