‘Simply put, Allen made terrible decisions and kept giving away drive-after-drive.’

‘Hyde was the only name listed on the report at all throughout the week from the Bills’ active roster.’

‘The crowd will be hyped up and incredibly loud. If the Jets take a lead early in the game, it will just make it louder and tougher on the Bills, and especially their offense.’

‘”It’s a new team every year, in the case with some of those younger players that are gonna play some roles that they didn’t play last year necessarily,” said McDermott during his first appearance of the season on the “Extra Point Show” on WGR. “They need to step up. There’s gonna be growing pains, but we’ll grow with them, through them, together. We’re excited to watch them.”‘

‘On the offensive side of the ball, it will be 2023 second-round pick O’Cyrus Torrence starting at right guard, beating out veteran Ryan Bates. McDermott feels Torrence had a “workman-like” approach to his game leading up to his first NFL season.’

‘”I didn’t have no pride ether way that it went,” Miller said. “Of course I wanted to play, but the ultimate goal is to get to the playoffs and have success deep into the playoffs and to win the Super Bowl. So ultimately, it wasn’t my decision, but I want to do whatever it takes to win.”‘

‘Just one season after signing a massive six-year contract extension with the Buccaneers, Williams was traded to his hometown team in 2014, where he would only dress for nine games, catching eight passes for 142 yards and one touchdown.’

‘According to a report from ESPN NFL reporter Field Yates, the Bills have restructured the contracts for cornerback Taron Johnson and offensive linemen Ryan Bates. This will create roughly $4.5 million of cap space that will make the Bills cap compliant for the 2023 season.’

‘I truly believe the wide receiver depth chart is much improved with the offseason additions of Trent Sherfield and Deonte Harty. Sherfield looks like he will bring a reliable pair of hands and positional versatility to the passing game. Harty adds speed, which was something the offense didn’t have enough of.’

‘”They have some good people over here: Micah [Hyde], [Jordan] Poyer, Shaq Lawson, Von [Miller] and on the coaching staff,” said Kirksey during his meeting with the media after practice. “I’ve been with [senior defensive assistant] Al Holcomb and [linebackers coach] Bobby Babich, and I like the other coaches they have here. I want to be part of a winning culture, so I’m hungry and ready to help out wherever I can. It was a no brainer for me.”‘

‘”Just his consistency, especially from a young guy on, and he’s been in the weight room this past offseason. There’s been discipline over a course of time that doesn’t waiver,” said Diggs following Thursday’s practice in Orchard Park.’

‘In 114 career games with the Browns, Texans and Green Bay Packers, Kirksey has started 94 games, registering 778 total tackles, 45 tackles for loss, 33 quarterback hits, 16.5 sacks, six fumble recoveries, and seven interceptions.’

‘Ifedi recently spent time on the Detroit Lions roster after being signed as a free agent this past May. However, he was released from their roster on Sunday.’

‘Kirksey had spent the past two seasons in Houston, even serving as a defensive captain last season. In his two years, Kirksey played 30 games, starting 29 of them with 217 total tackles, 13 tackles for loss, nine quarterback hits, three sacks, three fumble recoveries and three interceptions.’

‘According to the NFL’s waiver wire, the Bills lost safety Zayne Anderson to the Green Bay Packers, while also losing both offensive lineman Nick Broeker and cornerback Alex Austin to the Houston Texans.’
