‘Analysis: The Bills kept three quarterbacks on the 53 and four in the organization last year, but that was directly related to the Covid-19 pandemic and the need to have adequate insurance at the position should an outbreak occur. With the depth the team has at other positions, keeping three quarterbacks on the active roster again feels like a luxury – although it’s a possibility, especially if there is still reason to fear Covid could be a potential threat (which is why Allen’s vaccination status is worth wondering about). Webb’s contributions to the locker room are highly valued by the coaching staff, so he would seem to be a lock for the practice squad if he doesn’t make the 53-man roster. It’s harder to see where Fromm fits.’
