Seriously, with the health, or lack thereof, of our TE crew to date, it makes sense to have a viable option to possibly call back to the active roster down the road. (And yes, I got the sarcasm) Edited August 31, 2019 by FLFan

frostbitmic Posted August 31, 2019 Posted August 31, 2019 Thankfully they kept Lee Smith ... We need a guy that gets 15 yard penalties while standing on the sidelines. 2 2

If nobody claims him, Bills can either: Put him in the PS as an extra player, but can't be called up during the year. OR Put him on the regular PS, where he becomes just another PS player subject to normal rules. Of course they can put him on the 53, too.. Except, from the way I understand it, another team can claim him on their 53, then place him on their PS later to stash him. Edited August 31, 2019 by from_dunkirk

Daboll clearly plans to utilize the TE position. I would not be surprised to see three TEs on the field in some formations. I think early signs are positive that they may have some pretty decent TE options on the team. For those lamenting the loss of Duke Williams for his size and ball compete in the end zone, say hello to Sweeney and Knox, who are bigger and at least as fast and can fill that role nicely.

That's where the explanations get a bit murky, for me at least. I'd think he'd have to stay on the roster past week 1. Otherwise the process seems like a bit of a sham.

They only have 1 FB, 1 RG, 1 LCB, 1 RDE, and 1 FS: https://www.buffalobills.com/team/depth-chart Edited August 31, 2019 by from_dunkirk

As far as I know, if you claim a player he needs to be put on the active roster, and assuming he is not a vested veteran, he must clear waivers before he can be put on the practice squad.
