I had to humble myself, more than humbled than ever before, Ray said following a recent practice. The Bills also cut linebackers Kroy Biermann and Randell Johnson.įelton was cut after he struggled to establish a role in his first season after signing a four-year contract with Buffalo last year. And if it came down to the Buffalo Bills offering him, at 30, an invitation to attend their rookie minicamp in May, Ray leaped at the opportunity in what became a successful bid to win one of the team’s final roster spots. Buffalo also addressed its linebacker and special teams depth this week by acquiring Lerentee McCray in a trade with Green Bay and signing Ramon Humber, who both remain on the roster. Veteran free-agent addition Lorenzo Alexander is expected to take over the starting spot in place of Lawson. Shaq Lawson will miss at least the first six games of the season recuperating from shoulder surgery, and rookie second-round pick Reggie Ragland sustained a season-ending left knee injury last month. The linebacker position has been in flux for the past month.
Ryan is scheduled to discuss the moves before the Bills practice later in the day. Lawson said he’s done nothing wrong, and the NFL has not revealed what it is investigating.Ĭoach Rex Ryan previously spoke highly of Lawson, citing the player’s versatility and intelligence. EDT on Tuesday, but don’t think this is the final version of their roster. He is also being investigated by the NFL for potentially violating the league’s personal conduct policy. The Buffalo Bills have whittled their roster down to the required 53 players before 4 p.m.
