Opinion: Capaccio: Panthers at Bills preseason: Five things to watch
‘Joe Andreessen: This is becoming much more than just a “local kid could make the team” story. Andreessen was terrific against the Pittsburgh Steelers starting offense last Saturday, collecting 12 total tackles, including two for loss, and was seemingly always around the football. Now he has a chance to back it up with another opportunity, and if it’s anywhere close to the same kind of performance, the linebacker could very well find a way to the final 53-man roster next week.’

Carucci Take 2: Bills’ injury situation might not be a crisis, but it’s close
‘The injuries to Samuel and Valdes-Scantling might be a bit less discomforting if the Bills were seeing significant strides from rookie Keon Coleman, who so far has looked every bit like a first-year player finding his way. He has struggled to get off the line of scrimmage and had a short-armed drop for a certain touchdown against the Steelers. He has plenty of developing to do.’

Bills rookie linebacker Edefuan Ulofoshio working his way back from injury: '100% committed to Buffalo'

Bills vs Panthers game will decide if these players get cut. Who's on the bubble?
‘The top four are set with Khalil Shakir, Curtis Samuel, Keon Coleman and Mack Hollins. Last year the Bills rostered only five, and based on his fully guaranteed contract, Marquez Valdes-Scantling presumably is the fifth man. Now he’s hurt, as is Samuel, but coach Sean McDermott said Thursday that he believes both are in a good spot to return for Week 1. If that happens, is that group done, or will the Bills consider keeping six. Would it be Tyrell Shavers who makes the team? He has done some nice things in practice but he’s done nothing in the first two games, with the caveat that the QB situation has been, to put it mildly, troublesome so it’s tough to evaluate.’
