‘White started in 17 games (incl. playoffs) in 2020 and continued to be a staple of this Bills defense. He racked up 57 combined tackles, three interceptions, 11 passes defensed, a career-high 1.5 sacks, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries. White’s performance in 2020 earned him a spot on the Pro Bowl roster and he was named Second-team All-Pro. This is White’s second-consecutive season being in the Top 100 after he made his debut on the list in 2020.’

‘Playing with a pillow on your head’: Buffalo Bills embrace new helmet covers
‘“It doesn’t look great – I gotta be honest – and I don’t think anything they would develop would look any better,” McDermott said. “I think it does its job.”’
Bills 53-man roster projection after preseason opener
‘Williams fumbled against the Lions, which won’t help his case. Wade’s shoulder injury, which caused him to miss Friday’s game, likely ends any chance he had of making the 53-man roster.’
Pegula executives: Renovating Highmark Stadium for Bills is ‘just not realistic’
‘Someone quickly placed an orange cone in the middle of the tunnel, a warning to be mindful of the puddling slip hazard, which rendered the space even tighter and demonstrated the larger issue that Bills and PSE officials said they have with the nearly 50-year-old facility, which was built in 1972 and is leased from Erie County: It’s drip-drip-dripping to the end of its useful life, Bills and PSE executives insist, with one issue after another forming a deeper well of problems that they say can only be solved by building a new stadium.’
If this is Jake Fromm’s lone Bills highlight, it was a nice one for him to have
‘That should count for something, but it might not mean as much for a practice squad quarterback as knowing the offense; being able to run the scout team and give the defense a good look at the upcoming opponent; and having a rapport and serving as a knowledgeable sounding board to exchange ideas with Allen, Trubisky, QB coach Ken Dorsey and offensive coordinator Brian Daboll.’
Bills Owners Committed To Sharing Costs On Proposed Stadium
‘“When it comes to the future new home of the Bills, (the Pegulas) have always known that, like virtually all NFL stadiums, this will ultimately be some form of a public/private partnership,” Pegula Sports and Entertainment senior vice president Ron Raccuia said in a statement to The Associated Press on Saturday.’
Buffalo Bills owners committed to paying for portion of proposed stadium’s costs
‘Under the Pegula’s most recent proposal, Buffalo’s next stadium will be located across the street from its current lot in Orchard Park and will cost a projected $1.4 billion, The Associated Press reports. Renovating Highmark Stadium is not a realistic option, as the cost to do so is considered to be too expensive; a study in 2014 estimated structural and modern-day upgrades to cost $540 million.’
“You gotta be ready”, Bills RB Devin Singletary has strong preseason game with Moss sidelined
‘“It’s always fun when you can make things happen for the team,” Singletary said. “To be back in the end zone for us an offense, it was big. Everybody was hyped off of that.”’
Jon Feliciano pays it forward with back to school backpack giveaway
‘“I mean giving back to the community is a big thing in my life. Growing up I had my challenges and a lot of people helped me. So I feel like it’s my obligation to give back and do the same for people who don’t have much,” Feliciano said.’

‘We come out here to win’ | Davis Webb and Jake Fromm shine in Bills’ preseason opener

In battle of first-round picks, Bills defensive end Greg Rousseau gets upper hand
‘”I’d say it was a great feeling,” Rousseau. “To get my first sack and be able to get back there is really a testament to the whole defense. The secondary holding up its coverage, the other three D-linemen rushing their butts off, so whether I get a sack or whoever got the sack it really is a team effort and I’m really happy we got him down.”‘
Observations: Devin Singletary comes out hot in Bills’ opening preseason win
‘Running back Devin Singletary wasn’t one of those to sit, which could lead to some question about where he stands in the competition with Zack Moss to be the lead running back. That answer won’t be known for a while.’
PSE confirms plans for public-private partnership to finance new Buffalo Bills stadium
‘”They want to win, and they have continued to provide the resources necessary to do so,” Raccuia said. “When it comes to the future new home of the Bills, they have always known that, like virtually all NFL stadiums, this will ultimately be some form of a public/private partnership.”’
Bills starters sit during sloppy but victorious preseason opener against Lions
‘Rousseau hasn’t played a down in anger since the end of the 2019 college football season with Miami as he opted out of 2020 due to concerns about COVID-19. But throughout the first two weeks of training camp he hasn’t looked rusty at all, and now that the preseason games have begun, Rousseau made a fine early statement.’
