soflbillsfan Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 @Trentwannabewouldnt it be beneficial to keep lamp on the IR as the NFL is having unlimited amount of players able to come back from it. So maybe they may want to hold on to him and see where the oline is after week 3 of the regular season, if healthy he then can come back and play as a backup or fill in for someone who may get injured. Dont see why they should give him an injury settlement as he could be good if healthy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it would be longer than his injury settlement says. So other teams would have a few weeks to sign him before Buffalo would be allowed.

soflbillsfan Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Gilliam, Doyle, and Hamlin already told they will make the roster which is interesting as these were fringe players that could have missed it as much as make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trentwannabe Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Marquez Stevenson is headed to IR. That will allow them to sign Ferguson back. Sounds like McKenzie, Harrison Phillips and Tommy Sweeney are healthy and should be good for the opener Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmart128 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 I was really hoping Hollister would make the team. Cant believe we kept Sweeney over him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont get the obsession of the coaching staff over sweeney. I guess since we never really see him play in preseason or regular season since being drafted as he is always hurt but they must see something in practice to keep him. Rolling 2 deep at the position when you have 1 that is always hurt is a bit risky but I am interested to see how it pans out and a mid season trade for one may be in the works if knox doesnt show he has the ability to be the #1 te on the team.

BillsGuy82 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Anyone else think Tommy Sweeney takes over TE1 from Dawson Knox by mid season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he has a shot if he stays healthy. He has better hands and is more reliable when he actually plays. By the way this offseason has played out, McBeane has shown they have a ton of confidence in Knox and Sweeney, especially after they cut Hollister and kept Sweeney over him.
