‘Allen injured his hand halfway through the fourth quarter of the team’s 34–28 win. He landed on his non-throwing hand while diving over Budda Baker, as Justin Jones tried to stop the Bills QB from getting into the end zone. Allen remained in the game, but the hand was taped.’

‘The Bills were able to use this rule when the ball fell off the kicking tee twice. Bills punter Sam Martin had to hold the ball for Tyler Bass as he kicked the ball out of the end zone — resulting in a touchback. NFL on CBS analyst Ross Tucker was more than excited to explain this rule during the Bills’ win over the Arizona Cardinals.’

‘Projected score: Bills 30, Cardinals 27.’

‘”I think what’s fair to expect is he’s going to be an exciting player for us and I think he’s going to help us win football games.” Allen said. “He’s got a different skill set than maybe what I’m used to. I don’t know if I’ve had the type of skill set that he brings to the table as an option before. His ability to go jump and catch back shoulder balls, be strong at the point of the catch. He takes blocking in the run game with a lot of pride…”‘

‘It’s been a remarkable climb back to the top for the 26-year-old Hamlin, whose life was altered after he suffered cardiac arrest after making a tackle against the Cincinnati Bengals in January of 2023. He immediately collapsed and was taken care of by the team’s medical staff, who restored his heartbeat on the field before he was lifted on a stretcher and into an ambulance.’

‘”Last year, I was in the worst mental space I’ve been in since I’ve been in the league,” Diggs recently said in an interview with GQ Sports. “If I’m not in a good space, obviously that’s not the best for me. So that’s when things had to start shaking out.”‘

‘Frank Gore Jr. said he would “prove people wrong” after he wasn’t selected in the 2024 NFL Draft. He certainly did so Saturday, recording his first 100-yard game in the NFL during the Buffalo Bills’ preseason finale against the Carolina Panthers.’

‘Allen wasn’t just voted the most overrated in this poll, he was also voted the best trash-talker, which is something he seemed thrilled about.’

‘With his father — future Hall of Fame running back Frank Gore — in attendance, Gore rushed for 101 yards on 18 carries. His big day included a five-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter. The score included Gore breaking several tackles before he found pay dirt.’

‘The Buffalo Bills did so with their latest video posted Friday, asking players to name a random NBA player. First-round rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman started with Shabazz Napier, a college basketball national championship point guard from UConn who played six NBA seasons for six different teams.’

‘”I focus on a lot of things at practice,” Rousseau said, via SI.com. “I know there’s a lot of things that I can get better at. I know I haven’t arrived. There’s a lot of things I can improve upon. I’m glad to be out here, I’m excited to be out here and just working on my craft these next few weeks leading up to the season.”‘

‘”Listen, everyone’s gonna have their day,” Allen said, via News 4 Buffalo. “I’m happy everyone’s getting what they’re worth. I think that, as the game progresses and guys keep getting paid, the market is the market. I’ve got no problem with where I’m at right now.”‘

‘As the final score indicates, this was not a matchup that featured two high-flying offenses. In fact, we didn’t see a team cross the 50-yard line until we were six minutes into the second quarter. Josh Allen was supposed to start this preseason game, but when the Bills offense took the field, it was former Steeler Mitch Trubisky under center. He completed 9 of 13 passes for 86 yards and threw a bad interception in the first half, but did lead a field goal drive. Rookie running back Ray Davis stood out with 58 rushing yards on eight carries.’

‘Milano, who turned 30 this summer, left Tuesday’s training camp practice due to the injury. Milano hopes to return late in the 2024 season, possibly in December, according to ESPN, but will be out indefinitely after undergoing surgery. He’s a candidate to open the season on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list, which would require at least a four-game absence, but could end up missing the entire year.’

‘Claypool had been absent from practice since he suffered a toe injury on July 28. His injury was initially described as “day-to-day” by Bills coach Sean McDermott, but the situation had obviously gotten worse to the point where Claypool was placed on injured reserve. ‘
