‘Winters suffered a shoulder injury last training camp but started the regular season in his familiar right guard position and lasted the nine games before succumbing to the pain. He underwent surgery and was placed on injured reserve.’

‘Feliciano started all 16 games at right guard in his first season in Buffalo in 2019, the first time he had done so in his five-year NFL career. His absence leaves the Bills with several contingency plans, including moving second-year right tackle Cody Ford inside. Ford practiced at guard and tackle during his rookie training camp last season before starting 15 games at right tackle.’

‘Under the NFL’s training camp mandate, players must register three negative tests in a five-day span to enter the facility. Although teams are not required to shut down their facility for a positive test, the Bills chose to minimize risk by sending players home for the day.’

‘Buffalo spent a 2019 first-round pick on defensive tackle Ed Oliver, who will anchor the position alongside 2020 free-agent signees Vernon Butler and Quinton Jefferson, as well as 2018 third-round pick Harrison Phillips, who missed most of last season with a torn ACL.

‘”It begs the question as to why he was arrested in the first place,” Patterson said in an email to The Associated Press.’

‘Why they will win the AFC East: Top to bottom, this is the most talented roster on paper in the division. With 10 starters returning on both sides of the ball and a top-three scoring defense in each of the past two seasons, the Bills were already in position to make a run at the division crown before Brady left the Patriots. Now that they’ve added receiver Stefon Diggs to boost last season’s anemic passing offense, the Bills are poised to earn their first division title since 1995.’

‘As for the players and team staff, the state’s guidelines limit on-field access to essential personnel required to successfully stage and broadcast competition and require extensive hygienic and social distancing practices. Teams must also implement mandatory daily health screenings for staff, athletes and venue personnel, as well as diagnostic testing for COVID-19 “for all athletes and essential team staff with regular player access 48 hours before a competition.”‘

‘The truth is that he is neither the quarterback Bills fans might want him to be or the quarterback who gets memed for missing wide-open receivers with errant passes. He’s both of those guys, and there’s no telling when Good Josh or Bad Josh is going to show up from possession to possession or even snap to snap. As a neutral observer, few quarterbacks in the league are more entertaining to watch.’

‘”Right now it’s, where do we go from here? Jake has to continue to earn it. … There’s going to be players who are going to be wanting to see how Jake acts and reacts in certain situations. Not just on the field but off the field.”‘

‘”I sent him a text saying I love you and I’m here for you if you need anything,” Allen said. “He owned up to his mistakes and he talked to the team and if anyone had any questions about him, they asked him directly. It was a shame that it happened … He was extremely sorry and regretful and super hurt by it. He didn’t mean to cause anybody any pain — and I think the guys responded well to him.”‘

‘Daboll said Fromm’s actions will have to back up his promise to “commit myself to being part of the solution in this country.”‘

‘The conversation, which took place in 2019 and was posted to Twitter early Thursday morning, involved Fromm and a friend discussing guns. Fromm wrote, “But no guns are good. They need to let me get suppressors,” before adding, “Just make them very expensive so only elite white people can get them haha.”‘

‘The Florida workouts marked not only the first time Allen and Diggs had trained together since the latter was traded to Buffalo in March but also the first time the new teammates had met.’

‘The ninth overall pick in the 2019 NFL draft, Oliver was an instant-impact player for the Bills during his rookie season, recording 43 tackles and five sacks. He underwent core muscle surgery in January, but it is unclear whether he could return to the team’s facility once it is safe to reopen. The NFL sent a memo to teams allowing them to open their facilities in a limited capacity beginning May 19 — as long as they abide by county guidelines.’

‘Police were alerted to Oliver’s driving by a 911 call from another motorist, who reported a Ford Superduty pickup hauling a trailer with a dune buggy on it through a 45 mph construction zone on State Highway 242, according to MontgomeryCountyPoliceReporter.com. The 911 caller noted that Oliver was “failing to maintain a lane and driving dangerously,” according to the report.’
