Bills tackle Dawkins wears Sabres throwback to Sunday's game

Buffalo Bills tackle Dion Dawkins turned back the clock for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings.

The Bills offensive lineman arrived at the game wearing a black and red Buffalo Sabres throwback jersey with the famous Bison head logo (commonly referred to as the "goathead") from 1996-2006.

Dawkins' jersey was customized with his last name and his Bills jersey number, 73 and it's the latest evidence of the strong
Sabres-Bills alliance
.
The Sabres don't have a No. 73 on their roster this season, but forward Tage Thompson is No. 72 and forward Rasmus Asplund is 74, so maybe the 6-foot-5, 320-pound left tackle could fit right in on a line with them.
It wouldn't be the first time a Bills player theoretically] got some experience out on the ice. As you may remember, Bills cornerback Tre'Davious White claims to be the
[greatest goalie in Louisiana High School history
and is never shy about promoting
The Tre White Goalie Academy of Louisiana at Buffalo
.
And why not Dawkins? He is already plenty used to playing the left side. Now we just need to get him some skates.
