‘“The goal here is, for visitors who are coming to town to either watch a Bills game or go to an event, that they’ll have somewhere to go around the stadium instead of … just tailgating,” Liberti said at a Town Board meeting on Wednesday. “They’ll have something more formalized and family friendly,” he added. “An area that will help Orchard Park thrive.”’

Despite standout performance, son of NFL legend may not have spot on Buffalo Bills roster
‘“We got off (Sunday), then back to practice on Monday,” Gore said matter-of-factly Saturday following the Bills’ 31-26 preseason-concluding loss to the Carolina Panthers, a game where he was the Bills’ best player. “I can’t control it so there’s nothing that I can really do about it. But I put my best foot forward every day during camp, during preseason. Whatever they decide, they decide. They’re going to do what’s best for the team and I’ll be fine.”’
Bills make 1st decision at linebacker, release former Pro Bowler among Sunday cuts
‘Former Pro Bowl linebacker Deion Jones was the biggest name on the list. The Bills signed him as a free agent right after the NFL Draft to add some depth behind starters Terrel Bernard and Matt Milano, who suffered a torn biceps during practice 10 days ago.’
53-man roster projection: Will Andreessen make the Bills' roster? What about Frank Gore Jr.?
‘Analysis: While it would be a surprise to see the Bills keep eight offensive linemen, the remainder of this group has been pretty uninspiring throughout training camp and the preseason. The Bills should probe the free-agent market for other options before Week 1. A few players, such as Richard Gouraige and Tylan Grable, are practice squad candidates.’
New NFL free agent QB is obvious signing for Bills
‘Anthony Brown and Ben DiNucci played well against the Panthers, but if Buffalo wanted to pick up a more established backup option for Josh Allen, a division rival just let one go.’

‘Shavers also added that he felt like he did enough over the course of the preseason to make the 53-man roster, and that the Week 3 matchup with the Panthers was his Super Bowl. “[I] came in treating it like there was a championship on the line,” Shavers said.’

‘“I think I look like I stole the show. I got my chops out, I got my red cleats, but I can’t compete with Josh [Allen] and [Matt] Milano,” Dawkins said. “To be a part of Fisher-Price’s Little People… Little person in a big town, I guess being a little person is a big thing.”’

‘”I thought both quarterbacks were impressive,” head coach Sean McDermott said. “Short run-up, practice time. I thought the coaches did a really good job of getting them functional, and I tip my cap to those guys. They went in and executed, were able to run the offense, get us into somewhat of a rhythm in multiple drives there.”‘

Bills-Panthers observations: 10 things we learned from Buffalo's 31-26 loss in the preseason finale
‘Joe Andreessen watch. One of the biggest stories of the summer has been the roster push made by Andreessen, a Lancaster High School graduate who participated in the Bills’ rookie minicamp on a tryout basis before earning a contract. Andreessen started for the second straight exhibition and finished with eight tackles, tying cornerback Te’Cory Couch for the team lead.’
Buffalo Bills' starters use week of practices to stay sharp
‘“I (did),” he said before Thursday’s non-padded practice. “The unique part about it is, for us who have been around the league when there were four preseason games, you would usually take that fourth game and you would back your starters off and go with the other players.”’
Bills Mailbag: Assessing Joe Andreessen's chances of making the 53-man roster
‘The fact he’s from Western New York certainly enhances the story, but even if he wasn’t, his stock would have went up based on how he looked against Pittsburgh’s starters. We can safely assume Matt Milano starts the season on injured reserve. Terrel Bernard and Dorian Williams are the expected starters. Beyond that, there are four reserve jobs to be won – if the Bills keep six at the position. Five is also a possibility.’
Sports teams are family businesses. Sometimes a partner can help
‘The Bills haven’t revealed the reasons why Pegula is seeking minority partners, or how much he hopes to raise. Forbes has valued the franchise at $3.7 billion – and that was nearly a year ago – so it’s possible that a 25% stake in the Bills could cost nearly $1 billion. That injection of cash could help the Bills handle cost overruns on the stadium. The team is responsible for $550 million of the original $1.4 billion stadium cost, and the actual cost may reach closer to $2 billion.’
