Bills pass rusher Von Miller is healthy. Now comes the 'challenge': playing like young Von Miller
‘“So going back to last year, I would probably go about it the same way. I’m not the type of guy to come out here and say, `Hey, you know, my knee’s – it’s all right. I don’t know if I’m going to be able to start the season.’ I don’t like to live on those terms on or off the football field,” Miller said.’
Camp observations: The Bills' O-linemen are going against air. Here's why that's important
‘“It’s every day,” Kromer said. “During the season, we go against air as well early in practice, because if you ever saw Tiger Woods or a great golfer, they go out there and swing and swing, and they make sure their body is exactly the way they want to move it before they hit a ball. And then they hit a ball. And then they go play the game.”‘
'Surreal' return to Bills training camp for executive Pete Guelli
‘Guelli, who was hired as chief operating officer of the Bills and Sabres on March 19, grew up in Walworth, about 13 miles east of the Bills’ camp site of St. John Fisher University, and attended Aquinas High School in Rochester. This part of the state is his home.’
Delta Sonic and Bills' Dion Dawkins team up to collect school supplies
‘Through Aug. 23, customers at Delta Sonic convenience stores in the Buffalo-Niagara area are invited to donate new items such as facial tissue, pencils, glue, colored pencils, three-ring binders, children’s books and backpacks. Monetary donations can also be made at the cash registers.’
Matt Milano is healthy again and that should bring Bills defense to 'another level'
‘“You’ll see everyone out there at practice today and they’ll be out there in full capacity,” coach Sean McDermott said before the workout, something he may not say again for the rest of 2024. “I would say as we go through camp, some guys will be managed, Milano just to name one of them, but there’ll be some guys that get vet days as we go.”’
Joe Brady using Bills camp as a lab to put the pieces of his offense together
‘But while Allen is undeniably the most important player, the superstar quarterback around which everything revolves, Brady holds the title of offensive coordinator and ultimately, he’s going to be calling the plays that Allen runs, and he’ll also be taking the heat if things don’t work.’
Drums or flats? Buffalo Bills players settle chicken wing debate at training camp
‘”I’m a wing eater, it don’t even matter drums of flats,” Hamlin explained. “When you think about what’s the way to keep your hands the cleanest to eat a wing, you got to pick through the middle of a flat, you got to eat it with two hands. A drum you can pick it up one hand, dip it in some sauce, rather it be ranch or blue cheese.’
Is Dalton Kincaid ready for breakout sophomore year?
‘Among returning Buffalo pass-catchers, Dalton Kincaid had the most targets from Josh Allen last year at 91, more than any 2023 Bills except Stefon Diggs, who got his typical huge share of looks at 160. But, with Diggs in Houston and Allen’s wide receiver core full of newcomers, could Kincaid be in for an even heavier workload in his second season as a pro?’
Bills camp Day 2: Curtis Samuel breaks out, Mack Hollins shines (Observations)
‘“(Allen will be) like, ‘Hey guys, this is what I’m thinking. Let’s stop the tape. This is where my feet are (on a certain play). You gotta get to this spot (on the field during your route) because of that,’” Brady said. “Just seeing that growth where I can kind of take a step back and allow him to communicate a lot more, it’s been a lot of fun.”’
Brady discusses offensive identity/playmakers, Allen's growing leadership at Day 2 of Bills camp
‘“We don’t have positions,” Brady said. “The way that we taught the offense, we just taught everything conceptually. These are three-man concepts. These are two-man concepts. These are full-field progressions. It really forces the guys to understand at any given moment, you can be on any of these spots and you have to know it. They have to know it all. That’s been a big point.”’
Bills remain healthy as Samuel, Hollins among stars during Day 2 of training camp
‘Samuel was all over the field during 11 on 11 team drills, catching passes at various locations. His most impressive grab of the day came near the end of practice when Samuel beat his defender up the right seam for a 50-yard catch and run for a touchdown. Josh Allen placed the ball beautifully, and Samuel looked over his shoulder to haul it in as Cam Lewis provided tight coverage.’
