‘Matt Breida has really shown off his speed and quickness through the first four days. He works well in tight spaces, but also gets to where he’s going in a hurry. He could wind up being more of a factor in the offense than many anticipated when they signed him as a free agent in March.’

Bills’ runningback Zack Moss is healed up and ready to run
‘The Bills took Moss in the third round of the 2020 draft. In his rookie season he ran for 481 yards and four touchdowns averaging 4.3 yards per carry. Moss was also a pretty good weapon in the passing game picking up another touchdown there. He said that was all fine and good, but he’s been focusing at getting better, “I did a lot of good things last year and I did a lot of things I wasn’t so happy about last year, so I’m taking all those things and mashing them together and overall getting better.”’
Bills practice in front of thousands of fans
‘While quarterback Josh Allen has been exceptional through the first three practices, he was a bit more inconsistent on Saturday and even had a couple of passes that probably should have been picked off. However, he still made some terrific throws, including one to tight end Dawson Knox in the back of the endzone for a touchdown just over multiple defenders. Knox did a great job to climb the ladder, grab it, and tap both feet inbounds.’
Emmanuel Sanders feels he’s in best situation he could be in
‘“We’ve got a great team here. The practices have been amazing,” Sanders said Thursday following practice in Orchard Park. “I mean, I’m playing with ‘Stef’ [Stefon Diggs] and Josh [Allen] and ‘Bease’ [Cole Beasley]. I mean, Josh made a throw that I haven’t seen. It was a post ball to Cole Beasley, I mean, it was crazy, mouth-dropping. I’ve been in the league 12 years; so I’m excited about what they’ve created out here.”‘
Running backs, skirmish highlight Day 3 at Bills training camp
‘About midway through the session outside the ADPRO Sports Training Center, during one of the 11-on-11 team portions of practice, defensive tackle Ed Oliver and rookie offensive tackle Spencer Brown got locked up after a play. Punches were thrown, and Oliver ripped Brown’s helmet off. Then the 6-foot-8, 311-pound Brown dove on top of the 6-foot-1, 287-pound Oliver.’
Bills sign a pair of offensive linemen
‘Bills tackle Dion Dawkins and guard Ike Boettger are both on the Reserve/COVID-19 list and cannot practice with the club.’
Allen, passing offense impressive at Thursday’s training camp session
‘It was the media’s first chance to see the newly installed turf inside the facility, complete with blue end zones and a big Bills logo at the 50-yard line. In fact, it’s all made to look and feel exactly like their home field at Highmark Stadium, including using the exact same type of turf.’
Cole Beasley reads prepared statement on COVID vaccine at Bills training camp
‘Beasley went on to say that he only wanted to be asked questions about football so that “we can put this to the side.”‘
Irvin: Bills’ best chance at a Super Bowl is to get vaccinated
‘”It’s not about a single person. We’re trying to win a championship, it’s about the group,” Irvin said. “There’s no way you can tell me we have a better chance as a group without getting vaccinated, as getting vaccinated. So if you feel that strong about it, I understand, but I can’t have you spilling that **** in the locker room.”‘
Bills get right to work on Day 1 of training camp in red zone
‘Last year, the Bills offense finished 13th in the league in red zone efficiency, converting 61.76% of trips inside their opponents’ 20-yard line into touchdowns. They were fifth-worst in the league (28th overall) at stopping other teams from scoring touchdowns, doing it only 65.28% of the time inside the red zone.’
Opinion: Training camp is next-best thing to opening day for Bills fans
‘The biggest question on offense is who will be the fifth starter along the offensive line.’
Opinion: Bills One Big Question: Offense
‘There has been, and continues to be, a lot of speculation surrounding the Bills and Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz. His situation in Philly doesn’t appear to be resolved and many still think the Bills are a fit and would pursue adding him either via trade or if he’s ultimately released. That’s not to say the Bills don’t like this group of players. They do, and Knox has shown to be perfectly capable in the lead role. Hollister is a valuable addition, as well. However, but a talent like Ertz may be too tough to resist for a team that has Super Bowl aspirations, if the price is right.’
Bills sign Spencer Brown to rookie contract
‘This signing comes as all of Buffalo’s rookies will report for training camp on Tuesday in Orchard Park. The rest of the Bills roster will report to camp next Tuesday, while training camp officially opens next Wednesday, July 28 with the first practice at 10 a.m. ET.’
