ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills general manager Doug Whaley says he has nothing to report on the status of contract talks with unsigned star safety Jairus Byrd, who remains a no-show this off-season. Whaley provided the update Tuesday after Byrd was the only Bills player absent for the start of the teams three-day mandatory minicamp. The practices are the final sessions before the Bills open training camp late next month. Byrd is not required to attend practice because he has not signed the one-year, $6.9 million contract the Bills offered by designating him their franchise player in March. The move allowed Buffalo to retain the fourth-year players rights before he was eligible to become a free agent. Byrd has elected to wait in a bid to secure a long-term contract.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Rio de Janeiro police investigating a ticket-scalping case want the IOC president to explain why Irelands allocation of Summer Games tickets increased.The Olympic Council of Ireland received 296 more tickets after exchanges between Thomas Bach, head of the International Olympic Committee, and Patrick Hickey, a high-ranking IOC member and head of the OCI, police said Thursday.Hickey, 71, is facing charges in Brazil for ticket scalping, conspiracy and ambush marketing in a case that broke during the Olympics.Investigator Aloysio Falcao said they found a July 2015 text from Hickey to Bach requesting more tickets for the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as for the football, basketball and 100-meter finals. The Associated Press obtained the log of those text messages, in which Hickey lays out his wish list.Falcao said police retrieved information from spreadsheets by OCI sports director?Martin Burke, showing how the allocation of tickets had gone up last year. Burke was named as a suspect Thursday. There was no record of a text sent in response to Hickeys request.What we know for a fact is that the allocation went up after that text, Falcao said. We dont know what Bachs response was, so thats why we want to hear from him.The IOC did not respond to an immediate request for comment.Bach canceled his trip to the opening of the Paralympics in Rio on Wednesday. Police said he would have been summoned to speak as a witness.dddddddddddd The IOC said he would be in Germany instead for the official state mourning ceremony for former West German President Walter Scheel, who died last month at the age of 97. Its unclear if Bach will go to Brazil for any of the Paralympics, which last until Sept. 18.The IOC promised to cooperate Wednesday, but the officials said no one within the organization has sought authorities to clarify.Hickey is among 10 people charged by Brazilian prosecutors with ticket scalping. He was arrested Aug. 17 in a dawn raid on his Rio hotel room. After a two-day stay in a local hospital to undergo tests, he was held in a high-security prison complex.Hickey was freed last week, when a judge ruled Hickey wasnt a risk to the public or the investigation. His passport was confiscated, and he must remain in Brazil until the case is concluded.Police have said Hickey plotted with businessmen to transfer tickets illegally from a sports company called Pro 10 to hospitality provider THG Sports, which was a non-authorized vendor and allegedly sold them for high fees. Police investigators said the scheme was planned to bring in $3 million.The head of THG Sports, Kevin James Mallon, was arrested Aug. 5 in the case but was set free, like Hickey. Mallon faces the same charges and must remain in Brazil. ' ' '
