‘“There are moments where he’s in coverage and really doing a really good job in coverage and because of what he’s done with a jam or in position, you’ll see the ball go into the hands of Jordan Poyer or Micah Hyde because of the tight coverage that Tre has gotten. And the quarterback can’t fit it in there because of that, and those guys benefit from it,” Frazier said. “We’ve had a few occasions like that. And the fact that people really don’t challenge him very often.”’

Report: Giants sign QB Jake Fromm off Bills practice squad

Fromm Buffalo with love: Giants sign Buffalo Bills QB off practice squad
‘Fromm’s rookie year saw him serve as Buffalo’s emergency Covid quarterback. That means the rookie was kept away from the rest of the team’s QB room so few media members saw Fromm practice much in his first season. This year, Fromm was competing to be Buffalo’s No. 3 quarterback. Buffalo had signed Mitch Trubisky in free agency to serve as Josh Allen’s backup so Fromm was competing with Davis Webb for the No. 3 job. Neither did enough to warrant a spot on the 53-man roster and both were signed to the team’s practice squad shortly after roster cuts.’

Bills OC Brian Daboll remembers where he came from
‘For the last decade, we have watched coaches like Bill O’Brien and Carroll come so close to blowing big leads in the second half because they go conservative, only for their elite quarterback to bail them out. They think because they won the game, it was the right philosophy. They learn the wrong lessons from winning. Daboll, Sean McDermott and the Bills don’t learn the wrong lessons from, well, pretty much anything.’
Spencer Brown and Star Lotulelei come off Reserve/COVID-19 list, Feliciano returns to practice
‘Getting both Brown and Lotulelei potentially back for next Monday’s game is big. Brown has started in four of the seven games he’s played in and has shown his ability to protect QB Josh Allen. Lotulelei, meanwhile, has been a big factor in the Bills ability to stop the run and is a much needed boost for a defense that is going through some changes with the loss of CB Tre’Davious White.’

Bills gain some ground in Week 13 NFL power rankings
‘The Bills went to New Orleans on Thanksgiving night and overwhelmed an injury-decimated Saints team, an important bounce-back win for a team on the edge of crisis after a blowout loss to the Colts four days earlier. The news wasn’t all good, however: one-time All-Pro cornerback Tre’Davious White went down with a non-contact left knee injury later diagnosed as a season-ending ACL tear. This Bills season will be defined, in part, by how Sean McDermott can pivot and adapt without his most important player on defense. You can imagine Bill Belichick is already scheming ways to attack the White-free Buffalo D with a huge divisional showdown up next.’
