Former Bills QB Losman signs with UFL team

Former Buffalo Bills first round draft pick J.P. Losman knows he’ll most likely never get a chance to start in the NFL again, so he has signed with the Las Vegas UFL team.
“I’m trying to get back on the field as soon as possible,” Losman said. “I love the game. I want to play this game. I don’t want to be [in the NFL] waiting for somebody to get hurt or not play well. We’re trying to have as much success as possible here, try to create some buzz … and then go through [NFL free agency] again next year.”
Losman was drafted by the Bills 22nd overall in 2004 and recorded 33 touchdowns and 6,211 yards over his 5 years as an NFL QB, but he has always been an inaccurate passer with a high interception ratio.
His new coach for the Las Vegas UFL team will be former Giants head coach, Jim Fassel.
“Listen, if he’d have went back to the NFL and sat on the bench this year, then he’d have been no better off next year. Whatever anybody thought about him, they’d still say the same thing. Nothing would’ve changed. … Instead, you go in this league and you play. The risk you take is you don’t play well. But if you’re an aggressive person, you say ‘I’m going to play well, people are going to see me, and maybe I can erase some of those negatives that were in the past, and a lot of people will say, wow, look at him play now. He’s a new guy.’”
Have fun in the UFL Losman; you’ll be lucky to ever make an NFL roster again.
