‘“Last year we led the league in least amount of sacks and it just comes back to being ourselves, we all want to take that next step forward because we didn’t finish off the year the right way, so we’re really feeding off that and just continuing that next stride to make sure the whole offense is just one unit, not the offensive line, so we’re ready to take that next step forward.”’

‘Judging by the first week of training camp, that is already money well spent by the Bills, and might be a pretty remarkable value.’

‘“First step quickness, always trying to improve on that, speed that you can hold for a certain amount of time, that quick burst as well as separation and just finding new ways and new releases and just new ways to get open against man coverage, so that’s something I worked on a lot in the off season.”‘

‘Linebacker Terrel Bernard and wide receiver Curtis Samuel both sat out the session due to hamstring injuries. Then, what turned out to be the last play of practice, wide receiver Tyrell Shavers made a terrific one-handed touchdown grab with rookie cornerback Max Hairston covering him. As Hairston tried to knock the ball free, Shavers landed awkwardly as he came down.’

‘At various times throughout OTAs and minicamp we’ve seen quarterback Josh Allen finding his connection with several of his pass-catchers, including Moore, Keon Coleman, and Dalton Kincaid.’

‘“There’s a first few days of wallowing in your own despair, but it’s a calf strain and there’s a lot worse things going on in the world and it was a good time to happen, I mean there’s never really a good time to get injured, but relative later in the year.”’

‘From the beginning of practice, quarterback Josh Allen seemed to be looking 15-20 yards downfield each play, and often found success.’

‘“I was just trying to stay in shape, keep in contact with the guys and make sure we’re on the same page and it’s great to be back out there flying around.”‘

‘“I love James Cook I want to draft, develop and re-sign our own, but it’s a business and we have to fit it in and maybe we could fit it in, but we also have to look at ’26 and ’27 and beyond and we might walk into where we would have to trade or cut someone that we wouldn’t want to lose, so it’s not just 2025, so all those things have to make sense for us to fit it in and I’m going to have an open dialog with the players and let the business take care of itself.”’

‘Veteran Tre’Davious White, who returned to the club this off-season after being released prior to 2024, took the first reps with the starting defensive unit. But first round pick Max Hairston mixed in quite often and showed he was up to the task on his first day as a pro.’

‘”Couldn’t be more pleased with James and him being here on time and ready to go. I had a chance to meet him, greet him yesterday, and shake his hand, look him in the eye, and he’s ready to go.”‘

‘The Bills wore these helmets from 1987 through the 2001 season. In that span, the Bills won six division titles and four AFC Championships.’

‘The Bills have signed a pair of depth offensive pieces for camp in wide receiver David White and tight end Matt Sokol. In subsequent moves to accommodate those additions, the Bills have released wide receiver Kelly Akharaiyi and punter Jake Camarda.’

‘Tabor was the Carolina Panthers’ special teams coordinator for two year before that, and even served briefly as the team’s interim head coach in 2023. He also coached with the Chicago Bears in the same role from 2018-21.’

‘How healthy is Joey Bosa? Can he stay healthy and on the field? The free agent signee missed all of OTAs and minicamp with a calf injury and his availability will be a huge focus, especially considering the six-game suspension fellow defensive end Michael Hoecht will be facing to start the season.’
