Pegulas, Bills legends, Roger Goodell spread love at scene of racist Buffalo shooting

Buffalo Bills Hall of Famers Bruce Smith, Thurman Thomas, and Jim Kelly were the headliners, but hardly the only big names that paid tribute Thursday to the victims of the racist mass shooting on Buffalo’s East Side this past weekend. The trio was joined by other former Bills players as well as team owners Kim & Terry Pegula and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, who grew up a short drive away in Jamestown, NY.

“It was something that I had to do,” Smith said to the media not far from the scene where ten lost their lives and three more were shot.
