The parent company that owns the NFL's Buffalo Bills and NHL Sabres has hired Christopher

Schoepflin to oversee its dealings with federal Womens Kelvin Benjamin Jersey , state and local governments.The hiring on Tuesday comes at a time the Pegula Sports and Entertainment-owned teams will be seeking public financial support to upgrade their facilities, including the possibility of the Bills building a new stadium.Schoepflin has extensive connections at the state level by having spent the past eight years working in the administration of New York Gov. Andrew CuomoHe also has nearly 16 years of experience at Empire State Development, New York's economic development agency Youth Matt Milano Jersey , which provides financial assistance to companies looking to settle or expand in the state.In 2012, Empire State played a role in negotiating the Bills' 10-year-lease, which included $227 million in taxpayer funds committed to renovations and annual expenses.Last month Womens Zay Jones Jersey , Bills and Sabres co-owner Kim Pegula told The Associated Press the NFL team has yet to determine whether to renovate its existing 46-year-old facility or build a new one. Pegula said formal discussions won't begin until after the gubernatorial race is settled in November.The Sabres are also expected to seek public assistance in preparing plans to make significant upgrades to KeyBank Center, which opened in 1996.Buffalo Bills sign quarterback Derek Anderson The Buffalo Bills have done what many have been suggesting all season - they signed a veteran quarterback to help mentor rookie Josh Allen . Former Carolina Panthers quarterback Derek Anderson has been signed to help Allen develop.The 35-year-old spent the last seven years with the Panthers, overlapping with current Bills head coach Sean McDermott and general manager Brandon Beane. He helped former number one overall pick Cam Newton come into the league.Anderson also spent one season with the Arizona Cardinals after spending the first four seasons of his career with the Cleveland Browns. While he has only started four games in the last seven years Womens Kyle Williams Jersey , he has 47 NFL starts and has appeared in 76 NFL games with over 10,000 passing yards.This move makes perfect sense. He’s exactly the type of veteran that can help Allen through his progression. Quarterbacks coach David Culley doesn’t have a lot of experience coaching that position group and second-year man Nathan Peterman was the only other person in the QB room after the trade of AJ McCarron. To make room for Anderson, the Bills released safety Dean Marlowe http://www.buffalobillsteamonline.com/micah-hyde-jersey , who was called up from the practice squad last week after injuries to Micah Hyde and Rafael Bush. Marlowe played every defensive snap against the Titans.
