‘NFL medical director Allen Sills said when the time comes, consultants will sit down with Hamlin, his family and his agents to lay out the information they have on the situation, including any possible risks.’

‘In 2021, Poyer recorded five interceptions and three sacks while helping Buffalo win its second consecutive division title. He helped the Bills win the AFC East for a third straight season in 2022 after making four interceptions in 12 regular-season games.’

‘The added cap space makes the Bills a player in free agency moving forward. While several notable players have already found new teams, there are still plenty of good players to be had with free agent season still in its infancy.’

‘Hines is set to convert part of his base salary into a signing bonus to help provide some cap relief for Buffalo ahead of free agency. While this does help the team out, the added incentives to his contract do give Hines the chance to earn more than the $4.79 million he was originally due in 2023. Prior to this restructure, Hines was set to count $4.79 million against the Bills salary cap for next season.’

‘McGovern, a former third-round pick back in 2019, was used in a rotational role during his first two seasons (including as a fullback at times) before taking over as the Cowboys’ starting left guard in 2022. With the team seemingly looking to retain Tyron Smith, Terence Steele and Tyler Smith, there is less room for him in the lineup in 2023.’

‘Milano and Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt are the only players in the NFL with 25 or more tackles for loss and multiple interceptions since the start of the 2021 season. The Bills have allowed an average of 17.4 points per game in that span, the fewest in the league.’

‘Frazier signed on to be the Bills defensive coordinator in 2017, and has served as Sean McDermott’s assistant head coach since 2020 as well. Under his guidance, Buffalo has consistently had one of the best defenses in the NFL. In 2022, Buffalo had the No. 6 defense in the league, allowing an average of 319.1 yards of total offense per game. The Bills also had the No. 5 run defense (104.6 rushing yards per game), and the No. 2 scoring defense in the league (17.9 points allowed per game).’

‘”A lot of people ask me, ‘Oh, if it wasn’t Buffalo, where would you go?’ I kind of ponder the question every once in a while,” Poyer said on “The Jordan Poyer Show” podcast, via SI.com. “I would love to go to a state that doesn’t take half my money. It’s crazy to me how taxes work. Some people will say, ‘You’re already making X amount of money.’ Taxes play a big part in all of our lives.”‘

‘Henry most recently served as Indiana’s co-offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach, but in the past, he’s worked as the wide receivers coaches for the Dallas Cowboys, Cleveland Browns and New York Giants. Henry worked with OBJ during his time in New York and in Cleveland. He also worked with Beckham in college, as Henry served as LSU’s passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach for a few seasons.’

‘”You look at him statistically and what he’s been able to do in his first four, five, six years in this league, you know, it’s kind of unmatched by anybody,” Bills quarterback Josh Allen said on “Kyle Brandt’s Basement” of Mahomes, via NFL.com. “They’re the mantra of what you want to be and how you need to do it. Because, again they’re just constantly in the AFC Championship Game; he’s been in three Super Bowls now. Gotta find ways, it’s a copycat league, you gotta find ways to be like them.”‘

‘The 24-year-old tweeted a photo from near the Eagles’ end zone, writing, “Ain’t It A Blessing!?”‘

‘Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen will not need surgery after battling through a significant injury to his right elbow during the second half of the 2022 season, and is on track to be healthy for the 2023 season, per an NFL Media report.’

‘”This is about a player and a patient and about getting the very best care,” Sills told the Washington Post. “And, again, I do want to protect the privacy of those involved. But what I would say is I know that the Buffalo Bills have already engaged a number of outside consultants and will continue to do so. And they’ll gather opinions and then, [with] all of those opinions, they’ll sit down with Mr. Hamlin, his family, his agents, all the people that love him and lay that out. And that’s what we do in medicine every day is say, ‘Here’s our understanding of risks. Here’s our understanding of the situation. Let us make sure that you have all the information and make a good decision.’ And ultimately that is the decision.”‘
