‘After spending some time with both the Atlanta Falcons and Indianapolis Colts, Douglas finally caught on with the Tennessee Titans, where he started to re-gain some traction in his career. In 2019, Douglas played in 15 games, starting five of those contests. This past season, he appeared in 14 games, but did not make any starts.’

Bills to permanently wear white facemasks
‘Since the 2019 season, the Buffalo Bills have featured white facemasks to their uniforms twice, and both resulted in convincing wins.’
Isaiah McKenzie fools Bills teammates and coaches with hilarious prank calls
‘When McKenzie told Tre’Davious White he was pregnant, the cornerback responded with a flurry of obscenities. Josh Allen, meanwhile, just stared blankly at the wideout when he falsely said he had to duck into a meeting — just seconds after initiating the FaceTime call.’
Bills sign linebacker Marquel Lee
‘Lee comes to the Bills after spending his first four NFL seasons with the Las Vegas Raiders. From 2017 to 2019, Lee appeared in 34 games, including 19 starts. He totaled 104 total tackles, including six for loss.’
Bills sign linebacker Tyrell Adams
‘Adams finished 12th in the entire NFL in 2020 with 122 total tackles, including five for loss, adding two sacks, three quarterback hurries, four pass breakups, two forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery. He had 17 total tackles and two forced fumbles on Thanksgiving Day this year against the Detroit Lions.’
Opinion: How each Bills free agent addition fits the roster
‘Sanders is essentially a replacement for John Brown, who brought a lot of speed to the offense. Sanders doesn’t possess that type of high-end speed, but he gives the offense a bit more flexibility with his own ability to play both outside and in the slot. He’s also stronger and more physical than Brown, something the Bills need a bit more of from their receivers considering how some teams have been able to play physical against them. I expect him to be a regular in the Bills offense, sharing time with Gabriel Davis opposite Stefon Diggs, as well as seeing snaps in the slot.’
Bills sign former Bengals starting tackle Bobby Hart
‘Hart has never received rave reviews for his play, but Pro Football Focus did give him his highest grade of his career in 2020 with a 66.3 out of 100.’
Opinion: Tip of the cap to Bills’ brain trust
‘I’ll start with Matt Milano; I thought for sure he was a goner. It was a combination of me wondering how Beane and company could make all the moves fit, what Milano might get on the free market, Beane saying at the end of the season press conference that Milano had earned the right to go and see what was out there, no franchise tag being used, and being just days away from the legal tampering period without news of a new contract. Despite all of that, Milano was re-signed, and it sounded like he didn’t want to leave in the first place.’
Opinion: Bills facing must-win season with Josh Allen extension looming
‘Since the NFL’s new media rights deal will start in 2023, Allen may want to get back into the market when there is even more crash around the league. With that in mind, it makes sense for Allen to lock in three years now, while giving him a chance to renegotiate afterwards.’
Bills’ home will be called ‘Highmark Stadium’
‘According to Sports Business Journal, it’s a 10-year agreement between the team and health insurer Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield of Western New York.’
Is more 12-personnel key to unlocking Bills’ running game?
‘So if the Bills aren’t going to look any different on the offensive line, how else might they improve upon a running game that finished 20th in the league in both yards per-game (107.7) and yards per-play (4.19)? Of course, they could still add another running back.’
Bills sign wide receiver Brandon Powell to one-year deal
‘Powell entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Florida in 2018, signed by the Detroit Lions. That season, he appeared in six games, catching 11 passes for 129 yards and returned two punts and two kickoffs.’
Bills sign running back Matt Breida to one-year deal
‘The 26-year-old is one of the fastest running backs in the NFL. At his college pro day in 2017, Breida ran a 4.38-second 40-yard dash and topped out at 22.3 miles-per-hour on a touchdown run in 2019, according to NFL’s Next Gen Stats.’
Bills sign defensive end Efe Obada
‘The 6-foot-6, 265-pound Obada finished second in sacks on the Panthers last season with 5.5. That total is more than any player had on the Bills defense last year.’
Isaiah McKenzie turned down 8 teams to re-sign with Bills
‘”Money is nice … But if we got paid in candy, I’d still stay in Buffalo,” McKenzie added.’
