‘The Tennessee Titans signed Hart off the Bills practice squad in October. He played three games for them, including one start, but was then released leading to the Bills signing him once again to the practice squad. He was elevated to the active roster for one game, and played only one snap.’

‘“For me, it was more that family,” Diggs told reporters Thursday just after signing his new four-year contract extension. “That family oriented….from the top to the bottom, Kim and Terry (Pegula), and the coaching staff, how they’re brought up, how we’re developed, how our conversations are and the relationships that I’ve built in such a short span of time.”‘

‘There’s no question Diggs is the No. 1 receiver on this Bills team, but there was a lingering question about his current contract and if the Bills or Diggs feel they needed to re-work it. This given Tyreek Hill’s new $30 million per-year deal with the Miami Dolphins and Davante Adams’ $28 million per-season deal with the Las Vegas Raiders.’

‘”Buffalo wasn’t an option that really crossed my mind, but my agent’s said ‘Buffalo, look at this!’ and then when put it on paper I started to notice, man these guys were so close the past two seasons, a lot of teams had two tight ends already.”‘

‘Two signings that were reported, and also confirmed by Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane last week, have now both been made official via pen and paper.’

‘“We’ve got Stefon for two years, we know that,” Beane told reporters that Friday afternoon while also discussing the team’s offseason moves, including signing pass rusher Von Miller. “At the right time we’ll work with his reps and see if there’s something to be done that makes sense for him. It’s got to be fair. It’s got to make sense for him. Make sense for us. But Stef’s been great. I know he reached out to Von, when he heard, on the recruiting process. I know Josh (Allen) did, as well. He’s a winner. He’s all-in on winning and sure, everybody wants to be paid, but he wants to be on a winning team and I think he’s been the best version of himself, so I don’t see that being an issue.”’

‘The Bills – along with the Baltimore Ravens, Philadelphia Eagles, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – proposed a resolution amending the league’s anti-tampering policy to allow teams the option to deny interview requests from another club for one of their personnel employees to interview for their assistant general manager position until after the draft.’

‘“In the Buffalo game this year, it was the greatest 20, 30 minutes of football that I’ve ever seen. Ever,” he said. “To think that it ended that way definitely brought up the idea of, ‘Hey, is this equitable? Does this work for everybody?’ I have no question that started the discussion.”’

‘“I think the Buffalo Bills mean a great deal to the community, and I know that community means a great deal to the NFL. And so I believed firmly that the stadium was necessary. I said some time in the last year or so that a new stadium was really going to be required. The current stadium was nearing the end of its useful life. We needed a new stadium to keep the Buffalo Bills there, there’s no other place to play.”‘

‘”The project itself is a really fun project… I’m leaving it to [Terry and Kim Pegula] to give the details, but I know this: They’ve thought a lot about it and taken a lot of input from the fans.”‘

‘But now, we don’t have to answer those questions anymore. We don’t even have to ponder them.’

‘Beane said Boettger had a good exam on his most recent physical, but still has rehab ahead of him. The team will evaluate where he is when training camp begins in late July.’

‘The recommendation will now go in front of all 32 owners for a final vote Monday at the league’s annual meetings, which will be held in West Palm Beach, Florida.’

‘Jones doesn’t see the field much as a running back, but he has been a core special teams player for the Bills for four of the past five seasons, spending 2019 with the Houston Texans.’

‘It is not yet known exactly what the details are of the deal. No matter what they are, the Bills will now have five days to match the offer or lose Bates to Chicago.’
