Sean McDermott: Vontae Davis Mid-Game Retirement Won't Be Distraction for Bills

Buffalo Bills cornerback Vontae Davis retired during Sunday's game in one of the stranger situations of the 2018 NFL season, but head coach Sean McDermott doesn't want it to affect the team.

"We're moving on," he said, per Mike Rodak of ESPN.com. "That's what a team does. This is not going to become a distraction for us."

Davis started the team's Week 2 game against the Los Angeles Chargers but took himself out of the game.

"Reality hit me fast and hard: I shouldn't be out there any more," he said in his official statement.
