Buffalo Bills Pass-Rusher Jerry Hughes ‘ruins’ Rex Ryan’s Practice

Buffalo Bills head coach Rex Ryan was so happy with pass-rusher Jerry Hughes during practice recently that he took him off the field.

Wait, what?

Players usually are jettisoned from the practice field because they are injured, because they fail to follow instructions or because they are getting schooled.

So why is Ryan yanking Hughes off the field?

Apparently, nobody can block him, and it’s becoming an issue. Ryan explains, via the Bills website:

“It’s rare that you have to pull a guy from practice because he’s ruining your practice, but I had to pull him,” said Ryan.
