Does Jones play the gunner position? 

Yes.

[BuffaloBillies]

He probably feels like Kumerow Uno

 

(Dad joke)

[whatdrought]

As a WR wearing #87, I expect him to instantly be a superstar. 

[1st&ten]

Maybe some team expressed interest in him & the Bills didn't want to lose him.

With all of our WR's healthy and injuries elsewhere - it's a bit of a head scratcher to activate Jake Kumerow this week. Though I am interested to see him play. Will they have 7 active WR's on gameday or does someone take a seat?

Special teams.

That’s what I thought.  I don’t recall any injuries to Green Bay receivers on Thursday but maybe SF?  Or NE, as Jacobi Myers is supposed to be out this week, as well as Edelman and N.Harry.

Maybe another team tried to sign him and Bills decided to bring him up?

They just elevated him for the game. He’s not signed to the active roster. He can be signed by another team.

[Buffalo Barbarian]

Hes big, Seattle doesnt have the greatest defense, maybe McDermott feels he can exploit that.

We've already seen what he has... dude can ball. Hoping he stays on the active roster next 10 years

He is almost 29.....won't be around for 10 years. This should be an opportunity for him

I have no idea what's behind that.  OK, wait, maybe I do...

 

 

Looks like Kumerow played a good bit of ST last year at GB

https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/K/KumeJa00.htm

So it might be a Taiwan Jones thing.  Though he's nowhere near (4.54) Taiwan Jones (4.33) 40 time

 

 

 

yeah,  just a ST fill in. must be.

yes, the one he referred to last week, “he’s off in Buffalo.”

ST and he is a 6'4" WR

 

5 wide sets all day!!

[msw2112]

My Wisconsin friends tell me he's a big play guy who does some amazing things, but then drops some easy ones.  Talented, but unreliable.  Sounds like a WR version of Dawson Knox....

 

I believe they activated him for 2 reasons:. 1) today is going to be a shootout and the Bills need all the weapons they can find, so they're gambling on his upside; and 2) he can fill in for Taiwan Jones on Special Teams.

He's being signed to the 53-man roster.  Doesn't mean he will (or should) be active. 

[Mat68]

Buffalo goes 4 wide alot.  I want Roberts catching punts and kickoffs.  I want him no where near Allen.  Mckenzie inside, Kumarow spell outside.

Not sure this is the case.  You can be called up from PS without being signed to 53 under CBA Covid special allowance clause 

[BuffaloBillsMagic1]

Guy is our tallest war, maybe fade route guy inside the ten?

Is he being called-up or signed?

This should make up for passing on DK Metcalf
