‘From the beginning of practice, quarterback Josh Allen seemed to be looking 15-20 yards downfield each play, and often found success.’

‘“I was just trying to stay in shape, keep in contact with the guys and make sure we’re on the same page and it’s great to be back out there flying around.”‘

‘“I love James Cook I want to draft, develop and re-sign our own, but it’s a business and we have to fit it in and maybe we could fit it in, but we also have to look at ’26 and ’27 and beyond and we might walk into where we would have to trade or cut someone that we wouldn’t want to lose, so it’s not just 2025, so all those things have to make sense for us to fit it in and I’m going to have an open dialog with the players and let the business take care of itself.”’

‘Veteran Tre’Davious White, who returned to the club this off-season after being released prior to 2024, took the first reps with the starting defensive unit. But first round pick Max Hairston mixed in quite often and showed he was up to the task on his first day as a pro.’

‘”Couldn’t be more pleased with James and him being here on time and ready to go. I had a chance to meet him, greet him yesterday, and shake his hand, look him in the eye, and he’s ready to go.”‘

‘The Bills wore these helmets from 1987 through the 2001 season. In that span, the Bills won six division titles and four AFC Championships.’

‘The Bills have signed a pair of depth offensive pieces for camp in wide receiver David White and tight end Matt Sokol. In subsequent moves to accommodate those additions, the Bills have released wide receiver Kelly Akharaiyi and punter Jake Camarda.’

‘Tabor was the Carolina Panthers’ special teams coordinator for two year before that, and even served briefly as the team’s interim head coach in 2023. He also coached with the Chicago Bears in the same role from 2018-21.’

‘How healthy is Joey Bosa? Can he stay healthy and on the field? The free agent signee missed all of OTAs and minicamp with a calf injury and his availability will be a huge focus, especially considering the six-game suspension fellow defensive end Michael Hoecht will be facing to start the season.’

‘One of the storylines will be whether or not those ever present cameras and microphones will prove to be a distraction for a team that, again, has its sights on reaching the Super Bowl.’

‘The biggest storyline of camp may be the James Cook contract situation. Cook still doesn’t have a long-term deal and will enter the final year of his contract. There is a chance he does not report, which would make it an even bigger story. But assuming he does, does he participate in every drill? Is there a deal on the horizon? It’s all going to be closely followed.’

‘”The atmosphere was great because Chuck Knox had come in, and he was an established coach,” Nixon said. “He had some great success when he was out in LA and we knew he was a good coach, and he surrounded himself with other good coaches. And I was able to have a pretty good career there during that period of time.”‘

‘The Bills will hold a total of 10 open practices for the public, starting on Wednesday, July 23 at 9:45 a.m.’

‘Tight end Dalton Kincaid was a standout performer on Thursday, making several impressive catches, particularly during the red zone and goal line 7-on-7 period.’

‘Allen continued to find wide receiver Elijah Moore for several big gains, as Moore has consistently shown an ability to find holes in the intermediate level of the defense.’
