‘”I feel like hurting my ankle the way that I did, it was probably the worst one out of all of them just cause I had to miss a game,” said Davis in his meeting with the media on Thursday.’

‘On the second day of Buffalo Bills training camp here at St. John Fisher University, Terrel Bernard got his shot at middle linebacker with the first-team defense and Christian Benford got time cornerback with the first defense, opposite Tre’Davious White.’

‘”It was not an easy situation but I thought the players handled it extremely well, they came to work every week and competed, and that’s all you can ask for.” McDermott said.’

‘If there was any doubt still remaining before Wednesday morning, Diggs crushed it by early afternoon.’

‘”‘Stef’ just wants to win. Nothing wrong with that,” said Beane in his comments during his meeting with the media at training camp on Wednesday, “We all do it in different ways. ‘Stef’ is in a good spot, the offseason is the offseason, and we’re all going separate ways, especially players. That last game ends, you don’t get to go back and review the film with everyone and see what happened… it’s tough.”‘

‘This season for the Bills will, once again, be filled with higher expectations, even after Buffalo’s loss in the AFC Divisional Round this past January against the Cincinnati Bengals. However, the competition in the AFC, especially the division, continues to get more challenging.’

‘”For me to just want more say in offense is crazy, because I play receiver. I don’t care what play is called, I can’t get in there and say, ‘Call this!’ It’s a lot of outlandish things people were throwing out there,” Diggs said. “People were saying, as far as like my role, I’ve been a captain on this team for three years. There’s no question about my role and who I am as a player, how hard I work. Those things never had question marks, and you can’t say the same thing for a lot of people in the league. As a player, who I am and what I am has always been represented. And what I do on a consistent basis, how hard I work, you can see it.”‘

‘Hamlin, who did participate on a limited basis during mandatory minicamp last month, is a “full-go” for training camp, according to head coach Sean McDermott.’

‘In an over 20-minute media session, the receiver was fully transparent, open, and honest discussing his feelings about how last season ended and the offseason began way back at mandatory minicamp.’

‘At this time, it’s unclear what Matakevich is dealing with.’

‘Rousseau has learned some lessons as a young player in the NFL and Miller has been a big part of that. Rousseau said, “I feel way different, because after my rookie season, I was thinking like, I’m trying to be a solid player and contribute more than I did my first year, but this off season just me knowing that I know what I can do like I did early in the season last year where I was healthy, just knowing what I’m capable of, I have a lot more confidence and I’m just ready for the season.”’

‘Staying on the defensive side of the ball, the starting cornerback spot opposite Tre’Davious White is there for the taking once again. The Bills used three different players to handle that job last season, but I’m sure they’re hoping former first-round pick Kaiir Elam steps up and becomes an every down player. As a rookie last season, Elam was on the field for just 45% of the snaps.’

‘With the injury to Hines, the Bills now have an open competition for kick and punt returning duties once the team opens training camp on Wednesday.’

‘Murray may have already made the team, but with Hines as the return man, he’d also be occupying a spot in the running back room, giving the team added depth. Now, Murray could be that player, especially if they elect to go with either Deonte Harty or Khalil Shakir as their main punt returner.’

‘Evans was a former third-round pick of the Tennessee Titans in the 2020 NFL Draft out of Appalachian State. Evans has also spent time with the Chicago Bears before signing with the Indianapolis Colts this offseason. He was waived by the Colts in May after spending just over a month with the organization.’
