Still, there’s a chance that the UDFA might stick on the practice squad. Doubly so when the Bills have a few injured receivers on the roster already. Lenoir reportedly stood out in training camp practices, with smooth route running and a few big plays, so it’s a bit surprising to see him off the roster. The former receiver had an opportunity to play his way onto the practice squad when Tommy Sweeney injured his foot, but ultimately played sparingly and didn’t receive any passing targets in the preseason. Howard also signed with the Bills at the end of July. Maybe we’ll see a glimpse of Jamil Douglas or Jack Anderson snapping the ball this weekend. The team has Mitch Morse and Ryan Bates locked in, and that’s presumably all they needed. Gauthier, a former undrafted center, signed with the Bills at the end of July to reinforce their depth. The Bills will take a $100k dead-cap hit from his guaranteed money in releasing him. Adams had 125 tackles in 12 starts last season for the Houston Texans, but didn’t distinguish himself in practice or games when compared against other players like Tyrel Dodson, Joe Giles-Harris, and Andre Smith. He signed a one-year, $1.13 million contract with the Bills this offseason. The players removed were LB Tyrell Adams, OL Tyler Gauthier, TE Bug Howard, WR Lance Lenoir, and S Tariq Thompson.Īdams is the biggest surprise of the bunch. To meet that requirement, they released five players from their roster, the team has announced. The Buffalo Bills were required to cut their roster down to 81 players by 4:00 p.m.
