ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Bills owner Ralph Wilson has received his Pro Football Hall of Fame ring in a halftime ceremony during Buffalo's game against the Houston Texans on Sunday.

Wilson, who was inducted into the Hall in August, was awarded the seventh AFL franchise in October 1959.

Hall of Fame president and executive director Stephen Perry presented Wilson his ring at midfield.

"In all my exciting years, I've given out some rings but I've never gotten one," Wilson said before telling the fans that, "I still want to reward you with a Super Bowl."
