One of the Buffalo Bills’ biggest offseason additions may not even make it to Week 1
After a third straight loss in the AFC Divisional Round, the Buffalo Bills decided to rebuild their offense. They bid farewell to their top two wideouts in Stefon Diggs (traded to the Houston Texans) and Gabe Davis (signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars) and released Pro Bowl center Mitch Morse.
GM Brandon Beane used the No. 33 pick on Florida State receiver signed veteran wideouts Curtis Samuel, Chase Claypool and two-time Super Bowl champion Marquez Valdes-Scantling.
But according to a report from Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic, MVS has struggled mightily in training camp and is in danger of being cut:
“To begin training camp, the Bills appeared to have a pretty well-defined top five of the wide receiver group. That included Keon Coleman, Khalil Shakir, Curtis Samuel, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Mack Hollins.
But as camp has gone on, there are clear signs that the top five may only be four, with Valdes-Scantling needing to battle his way back into it. Valdes-Scantling has faded into the background in the last few practices. He has yet to make a strong impression in the passing game during team drills, and his opportunities with quarterback Josh Allen and the top unit have dwindled.”
