26CornerBlitz Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) Bills promote DT Robert Thomas to the 53-man roster With just three defensive tackles on their 53-man roster, the Bills set to bolster their ranks on the defensive interior. On Saturday, Buffalo promoted DT Robert Thomas to the active roster from their practice squad. Thomas (6-1, 316) was most recently with the New York Giants, before he signed with the Bills. He’s appeared in 24 career games, with 23 coming with the Giants over the last two seasons. The 27-year old figures to play a rotational role on Buffalo’s defensive line. To make room on the roster for Thomas the Bills released Jeremy Kerley. Thomas will wear number 97.

Dablitzkrieg Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I'm assuming they plan on moving Zay into the slot now and McCloud is healthy to return. Still, very odd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stads Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Is this McDermott's response to being forced to start Allen? I guess they plug DiMarco in at WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, very odd So I guess our #1 is Benjamin and our #2 is Foster or McCloud? And Zay in the slot. Or maybe they like Holmes. I really don't know to be honest.

Buddy Hix Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Says a lot about the state of the O when the release of Kerley is met with such scorn. But yeah, no idea why this move was made. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dabills21 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Not sure why everyone is surprised by this.... 1. we just cut a Dt earlier in the week, and need 4 to rotate 2. Kerley isn't head and shoulders above Ray Ray or Foster, and only signed a 1yr deal 3. this gives our younger WRs an opportunity to probe themselves (keep in mind this is a rebuild year) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
