‘One of the more notable undrafted signings is five-time Pro Bowler and former Bills running back, Frank Gore’s son Frank Gore Jr out of Southern Mississippi. In his four years at Southern Mississippi, Gore Jr. rushed for 4,022 yards and 26 touchdowns.’

‘John Murphy has served as the play-by-play voice on the Buffalo Bills Radio Network for parts of 19 seasons, taking over for broadcasting legend Van Miller upon his retirement after the 2003 season.

‘The Bills are still ratings gold because of one player: Josh Allen. He is one of the most exciting quarterbacks in the league, and that means the Bills will be in plenty of national TV games once again.’

‘Over the course of his eight-year career since being drafted in the second round (52nd overall) of the 2016 NFL Draft, the 29-year-old has spent time with three different organizations – Atlanta Falcons, Cleveland Browns and the Panthers. In Atlanta, Jones did put up a Pro Bowl caliber season in 2017, where he racked up 138 total tackles, 10 tackles for loss, one sack, 10 passes defended and three interceptions.’

‘So, let’s not pretend there is this giant chasm between the two teams. There isn’t. Buffalo has been chasing, but they have also been losing photo finishes. As long as Kansas City has Mahomes and Buffalo has Josh Allen, it will be a tough matchup for both teams. So, stop letting them live rent-free in your heads and let’s see what the Bills are made of. Save the panic for January, that’s when it’s going to be needed.’

‘Jones, 29, has had three other stops in the NFL, starting in Atlanta after being a second round pick by the team back in 2016 and playing there until 2022. During his time in Atlanta, Jones did have his lone Pro Bowl which was in 2017. Early in 2022, Jones was traded to Cleveland where he finished the season before heading to Carolina for this past season.’

‘According to the agency that represents him, the Bills will sign former Detroit Lions wide receiver Quintez Cephus, who did not play last season due to a season-long suspension for violating the league’s gambling policy.’
