Buffalo Bills quarterback EJ Manuel has revealed that he is delighted with the progress that the club's rookies have made this season.

Manuel, who himself was drafted in for the 2013 season, said that all the players who came into the team arrived with the ambition to help the team on the field.

"We all just really wanted to help this team; I think that was the biggest thing," he told the club's official website. "We didn't want to come in and do a lot of talking and things like that.

"We just really wanted to earn our respect from our veteran teammates and thus far I think we're still on the path to doing that."

The Bills are 4-7 so far this season.
