Josh Allen, Zay Jones and 5 Bills on Kelvin Benjamin's Release
Orchard Park, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills fans were growing impatient in recent weeks as their team's No. 1 wide receiver continued to struggle despite the sudden improvement from the rest of the offense.
On Tuesday most Bills fans rejoiced when they heard the news that much-maligned receiver Kelvin Benjamin had finally been released by Buffalo.
He played 12 games this season for the Bills and had just 23 receptions for 354 yards and one touchdown.
The theme in the locker room Wednesday after practice was about opportunity for the rest of the receivers on the roster. Zay Jones becomes the new No. 1 and a trio of young pass catchers will try to prove their skills in the last four games as the Bills evaluate the position for the future.
Here is what Jones, quarterback Josh Allen, and more said about Benjamin and veteran Andre Holmes getting released.
