Bills’ rookie RB Ray Davis finds the light out of darkness

‘“To be here and to understand everything that I went through, man, it’s hard not to look back,” Davis said. “It’s hard not to bask in the moments of, dang, how did I get here? Why am I here? Every day I always question that. Not in a negative way, but in a way I’m like, man, I made it. I shouldn’t be here. Everybody knows I shouldn’t be here because of what I went through in my life. But I’m here.”’

Which Buffalo Bills players are ready to emerge on offense in 2024?

Oversight committee looks for more say in Bills community fund allocations

‘“We will now help in how those funds are allocated,” said the Rev. Mark E. Blue, the committee chair. “We did not have a say in it this time, but we will develop a formula for how things can be done, and funds allocated going forward. Not saying they were done unjustly or unfairly, but we just don’t know,” he added. “Now that we do know, we’ll be more proactive.”’

Bills quarterback Mitch Trubisky finds his way back home

Bills training camp questions: Who punts and who returns?

‘As a sixth-round pick, Hardy might need to win the punt return job to make the 53-man roster. At least one national analyst believes he’ll do just that. Last month, NFL.com’s Chad Reuter named Hardy to his preseason all-rookie team as a return specialist.’

Bills Mailbag: New personalities, jersey choices and kickoff returns

‘Hollins, who I interviewed once during college at the University of North Carolina, is a delight. If you’re not following his daily habits on Instagram now (which take a different theme each month), I highly recommend doing so. On top of that, Hollins is always very vocal in hyping up his teammates during practice, and I think fans will latch on to that energy quickly.’
