Bills turn up pressure on Tyler Bass by adding kicker Lucas Havrisik to practice squad
‘Havrisik entered the NFL with the Indianapolis Colts, joining their practice squad in 2022. He also spent time with the Cleveland Browns’ practice squad.’
PlayAction Column: Bills' Aaron Kromer faces mentor in Titans' Bill Callahan
‘Kromer, hired by Bills coach Sean McDermott in 2022, has developed into one of the most highly regarded offensive line coaches in the NFL. Part of the reason is Kromer had a great mentor in Callahan, who is widely viewed as one of the better offensive line coaches in league history.’
Bills notebook: Dion Dawkins was fined for his beef vs. Jets; James Cook a full participant at practice

Canopy starts going up at new Bills stadium as work intensifies on project

Bills sign former Rams kicker to practice squad as Tyler Bass struggles continue

Cooper appears, Cook, Oliver return to Bills practice Thursday, Davis added to injury report
‘Cooper joins a Bills wide receiver room that includes Khalil Shakir, Curtis Samuel, Mack Hollins and rookie Keon Coleman. Veteran WR Marquez Valdez-Scantling was released by the team after the trade for Cooper. Buffalo is hoping the new addition can open things up for the team’s other targets, which, with the exception of Shakir, have struggled to find their footing early in the year.’
Ajay's Analysis: WR Cooper brings much-needed skillset to Bills offense
‘Bringing in Cooper made sense for both sides, as Buffalo needed a high-end wide receiver talent. The Browns are 1-5 with Cooper in the final year of his contract. The Bills owe their new piece roughly $800,000 for the final 11 games of the 2024 season. Cooper is a cost-controlled rental for the Bills, and even if things do not go as planned, adding the former Browns wide receiver does minimal damage, if any, to the team’s plans moving forward.’
Tyler Bass trying to work out of a slump as Bills add pressure by signing another kicker
‘Bass is in the first year of a four-year, $21 million extension signed April 20, 2023, and his $7.83 million dead cap hit makes releasing him difficult. But after missing a field goal and an extra point against the New York Jets, the Bills appear to be inching closer to making a switch, which is something that franchise hasn’t done in-season since 2001.’

Both players grew up in the greater Pittsburgh area. Both have remained active in their communities.’

Adding Cooper among reasons Allen looks forward to 100th start, as Bills set to host Titans
‘“We all know about the story about where I came from, junior college and no offers and this and that,” Allen said, referring to his modest beginnings at California’s Reedley Community College before landing a scholarship at Wyoming.’
AFC East-leading Bills return home following 3 road games to host the Titans
‘Key matchup – Bills QB Josh Allen against the Titans defense. Tennessee has held its first five opponents to under 200 yards net passing facing the likes of rookie Caleb Williams, backup Malik Willis, Tyler Huntley and Joe Flacco. If the Titans can hold Allen below 200 yards net passing, it would be the first time this franchise has done that since the first six games of the 1975 season as the Houston Oilers.’
Amari Cooper says trade to Bills gives him 'blank canvas' to 'control your own destiny'
‘”As far as the way [Allen] plays, I mean, it’s phenomenal,” Cooper said. “Every time I turn on the television and watch him play, he plays with a lot of grit, a lot of hustle. He plays hard, and obviously he’s been one of the top quarterbacks in the game for a while now. So, just to be able to play with him and experience that in person, I think it’s going to be real cool.”‘
