ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Call it the Shareece Wright effect.
After the veteran Buffalo Bills cornerback resorted to taking an eight-hour Uber ride from Chicago to Buffalo to not miss a voluntary practice in June, his unusual decision made national headlines. Coach Sean McDermott praised Wright at the time for his commitment to the team, and defensive backs coach Gill Byrd had Wright share his story to his teammates.
Four months later, the story has repeated itself -- this time with Bills practice squad wide receiver Brandon Reilly.
Reilly, an undrafted rookie from Nebraska, was returning from Omaha to Buffalo through Chicago on Sunday night after the Bills' bye weekend.
