Initial 53-Man Roster Announced for Buffalo Bills 2024 Season #

The Buffalo Bills have finalized their initial 53-man roster for the 2024 regular season. In regards to the quarterback position, there is concern regarding the backup quarterback’s readiness for Week 1 due to an injury. The team is expected to add a new quarterback to the practice squad to provide extra depth.

At the running back position, the top three players were already determined, with a fourth player securing a practice squad position based on their preseason performance.

The Bills have chosen to keep five wide receivers for the upcoming season, with the possibility of adding a sixth if they clear waivers. One receiver lost the return job due to ball security issues.

In the tight end position, the team went with three players, leaving another player as a priority addition to the practice squad.

The offensive line roster consists mainly of young and inexperienced players, with the starting five being clear.

At the defensive end position, six players were selected, with two players possibly being added to the practice squad.

Four players were chosen for the defensive tackle position, with the possibility of adding a veteran player to the practice squad.

The linebacker group includes six players, with one player making headlines for their journey from undrafted tryout player to the active roster.

At the nickel position, two players were selected, along with one player who had a strong summer and may be considered for the practice squad.

A total of five cornerbacks were chosen, including an undrafted rookie acquired via trade for his return specialist abilities.

In the safety position, four players were selected, with the starting free safety spot still up for grabs.

The special teams roster consists of a kicker, punter, and long snapper, with the possibility of adding a practice squad kicker.

Finally, a projected practice squad was listed, including various players from different positions.
