‘Linebacker Joe Andreessen has certainly worked his way into the conversation for being in the latter group for the Buffalo Bills, and the way he has performed this summer, it may no longer be a surprise to see him make the initial 53-man roster when it is announced next Tuesday.’

Bills’ Keon Coleman speaks on dropped TD vs. Steelers: ‘Got to make that catch’

Buffalo Bills fan wins once-in-a-lifetime prize at Fanatics Fest
‘Sarah Peterson recently attended Fanatics Fest, a three-day event, at the Javits Center in New York City. In an email she received about attending the event, Peterson noticed information on a costume contest with the winner receiving tickets to every major sports championship.’
Bishop returns, several other injury updates, Bass up and down at Tuesday Bills practice

Bills rookie Keon Coleman more focused on mental aspects than physical as regular season approaches
‘“You can understand the rhythm that they play at, the type of things they like to take away,” Coleman said. “And then from watching the film, taking into account the guys they’re probably going against are not, you know, the same size or your speed and could do the different things that you can do. So just imagining how I would stop myself, pretty much, is the same way they are imagining how to stop me when I’m going out there.”’
Training Camp Takeaways: Rookie Cole Bishop returns to practice after missing three weeks
‘Although Bishop hasn’t been on the field, he’s been able to learn from a veteran group of safeties, especially Edwards, who have played a combined 480 NFL games and 295 starts. Watching from the sidelines has given Bishop a different perspective as he tries to learn Buffalo’s defensive system.’
Bills QB Josh Allen Blindly Guessing Different Types of Milk Is Just Too Funny
‘The 28-year-old is a dream player for the Bills’ social media team, too, because he’s seemingly always up for doing whatever wild thing they ask of him. The most recent one had Allen blindly tasting different milks while trying to guess what they were.’
The Bills should enter the Brandon Aiyuk trade saga
‘I know, I know – it’s basically a two-team staredown between Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Omar Khan and San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch. However, wouldn’t you like them to at least call? It’s not every day that a star of Aiyuk’s caliber is seemingly available, and the Bills’ biggest need right now is receiver. And while they are clearly leaning into a more efficiency-over-knockout blow type of offense, you can still do that with Aiyuk on the roster. He’s spent his career in that exact type of offense anyway.’
Should Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott be on the hot seat?
‘It could happen. In addition to all the turnover and newness of Buffalo’s roster and coaching staff, this is a team that continues to have hard luck in the injury department. It isn’t inconceivable that the Bills will regress, rather than progress, in 2024.’

McDermott: Getting to Year 8 in Buffalo is 'a team effort'
‘“Your always confident when you’ve earned a job like that. You’re confident in your own abilities, but there is always questions of how is this really going to take shape,” said McDermott while appearing on “Schopp and the Bulldog” on Tuesday. “I haven’t done this myself. It’s been a team effort.”‘
Joe Brady not concerned about getting another new quarterback ready
‘”Last week, Ben DiNucci did an incredible job as it was all hands on deck of just going out there to operate. He felt confident going out there, and if he had to throw the ball, we would’ve been fine. Anthony will do the same thing this week,” said Brady on Tuesday during his meeting with the media ahead of practice. “If it’s one play they feel confident or if it’s 10, I’ll make sure I’m giving them the opportunity to put their best football out there.”‘
