In a reversal from how he felt on the subject last November, Hall of Fame Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly is rooting for Trent Edwards to win the Bills starting quarterback job this summer, Rodney McKessic of the Buffalo News reports.

"I hope it's Trent," Kelly said on Friday night. "I know Trent, I've known him for a couple of years and I think everyone hopes that one guy will step up."

Kelly told the USA Today last November that while he liked Edwards personally, he wasn't sure if Edwards was a long-term option at the position. Last night, Kelly said a new start in a new system may help Edwards.

"Everyone talked about the thing between me and Trent and the bottom line is he didn't have an offensive line last year with all the injuries, and he had a system that I totally thought stunk," Kelly said. "It's a new start, not many people get a third opportunity to show what they can or cannot do"

Edwards will compete with Ryan Fitzpatrick and Brian Brohm for the starting job this summer.
