Week 1 of 2026 NFL season kicks off on Wednesday, September 9
It’s begun to feel as though the NFL endeavors to spider out endlessly in an effort to consume every day possible during the fall and early winter. Great, more football! Right? Well, yes… but also maybe no. There are plenty of discussions to be had about player rest and what adding days of the week […]
Buffalo Bills’ free-agent additions don’t rule out safety in 2026 NFL Draft
After the first few days of NFL free agency (which honestly really began on Monday, March 11 at noon ET, “tampering period” be damned), the Buffalo Bills hadn’t yet addressed the safety position. Buffalo had already re-signed center Connor McGovern to a four-year, $52 million contract and traded for wide receiver DJ Moore (formerly) from […]
Buffalo Bills restructure DJ Moore contract, slash 2026 cap hit
The Buffalo Bills did exactly what most expected once DJ Moore officially landed in Buffalo: they immediately reworked the wide receiver’s contract to create major 2026 salary cap relief. Moore originally carried a $24.5 million cap charge for 2026, and because the full base salary amount was already fully guaranteed, Buffalo had little reason not […]
Bills film analysis: Is there a good plan for C.J. Gardner-Johnson?
The Buffalo Bills are looking to bolster their defensive backfield and part of that plan was signing C.J. Gardner-Johnson. Below are my thoughts after reviewing some game film, but I have one appetizer thought up here. Have you ever done any resume scouring when looking to hire someone? One thing that’s conventionally been considered a […]
State of the Buffalo Bills roster: quarterbacks
The Buffalo Bills have one of the NFL’s best quarterbacks. They also had a top-tier backup quarterback last season. With salary cap space at a premium, it’s unlikely that the Bills can truly afford to maintain their pattern of keeping a solid veteran behind Allen. In truth, Allen is entering the stage of his career […]
Josh Allen 1 of 3 NFL QBs drafted in 2010s still playing for original team
Most NFL general managers have two well-understood career goals. The first is to obviously bring home a Lombardi trophy for the team and its fan base. The other goal is to find the ever-elusive franchise quarterback who brings stability to a football team for at least a decade, in a perfect world. Yet, as Buffalo […]
Bills Mafia doesn’t want Buffalo to trade for Maxx Crosby
This past week here at Buffalo Rumblings, we were curious to learn more about how Buffalo Bills fans felt following the failed trade for defensive end Maxx Crosby between the Las Vegas Raiders and Baltimore Ravens. After failing his physical conducted ahead of his officially joining the Ravens, the idea of Crosby landing elsewhere was […]
Bills news: Dissecting latest mock drafts after first week of free agency
The Buffalo Bills shored up some of their roster needs during the first week of free agency, bringing in edge rusher Bradley Chubb, cornerback Dee Alford, and safeties C.J. Gardner-Johnson and Geno Stone. Those moves, along with the addition of veteran wide receiver DJ Moore and the re-signing of center Connor McGovern, will impact how […]

Fans of the Buffalo Bills are invited to join Buffalo Rumblings for a charity bracket contest around the 2026 NCAA men’s basketball tournament. Everyone will get a chance to compete against former Bills, popular content creators, and fellow fans in a benefit for the Alzheimer’s Association of Western New York. All are welcome to join, […]
State of the Buffalo Bills roster: specialists
The Buffalo Bills thought they were set at kicker heading into last season. Then, their incumbent kicker suffered an injury over the summer. The Bills signed a veteran kicker on a whim, and he was absolutely fantastic throughout the season, kicking a game-winner in his first appearance with the club before nailing a game-tying field […]
Bills news: Why Bradley Chubb says he’s a “great fit” for Buffalo
Earlier this month, the rebuilding Miami Dolphins parted ways with edge rusher Bradley Chubb, not because he’s lost his skills as a pass rusher, but for salary cap reasons. With the opportunity to test out his options in free agency, Chubb decided to join the team that had tormented him for much of his NFL […]
Geno Stone signing with Buffalo Bills on 1-year deal
NFL free agency has been helpful to the Buffalo Bills’ roster-building endeavor under new head coach Joe Brady and new defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard. Hoping to refine a group that became an eventual strength last season, Buffalo is reportedly signing free-agent safety Geno Stone to a one-year contract, per a report by Jordan Schultz. Stone […]
Mitch Wishnowsky returning to punt for Buffalo Bills in 2026
The Buffalo Bills have their punter for the 2026 NFL season, bringing back Mitch Wishnowsky on a one-year contract, per a report by ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The now-34-year-old Wishnowsky spent the majority of the 2025 season as Buffalo’s punter, providing a stabilizing force to a room that saw roster turnover thanks to performance and injury […]
Film analysis of new Buffalo Bills DE Bradley Chubb
The Buffalo Bills are starting to reshape the defense with a pretty significant signing from their southern rivals, the Miami Dolphins. Defensive end Bradley Chubb, who knocked quarterback Josh Allen down a few times last season, is coming to Buffalo. Not considered one of the premier names at the position by most despite being a […]
Contract details for Buffalo Bills C Connor McGovern’s new 4-year deal
Getting a deal done for Buffalo Bills starting center Connor McGovern before his free-agency window opened looks even better now when you step back and look at the structure. The Bills re-signed McGovern to a new four-year, $52 million contract that includes $26.2 million guaranteed at signing, with another $5.24 million set to vest next […]
Contract details for Buffalo Bills TE Dawson Knox’s reworked deal
The Buffalo Bills reached an agreement with Dawson Knox this past Tuesday. The team reworked his contract instead of moving on from the tight end. Knox is one of quarterback Josh Allen’s longest tenured offensive weapons. He had been set to count roughly $17 million against the 2026 salary cap, a number that immediately made […]
Buffalo Bills announce jersey number updates for 2026 season
It’s that time of year when new Buffalo Bills players choose their jersey numbers, while others switch to a different number. Here’s a look at what the new players will be rocking come September. While he isn’t technically “new” like the others, backup quarterback Kyle Allen will wear No. 11 after wearing No. 9 during […]
State of the Buffalo Bills roster: tight ends
The Buffalo Bills relied heavily on their tight ends last season. Their top two tight ends both exceeded 40% of the team’s total snaps, and all three of their top players at the position played at least 25% of Buffalo’s overall snaps. While some of that snap share might have been due to injury, it’s […]
Bills news: How DJ Moore fits with Buffalo
The Buffalo Bills dealt away a second-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft to acquire veteran wide receiver DJ Moore, hoping Moore will rediscover the form that saw him eclipse 1,000 receiving yards four times in a five-year span from 2019-2023 and provide another valuable receiving option for Josh Allen. Moore is reuniting with new […]
C.J. Gardner-Johnson signing with Buffalo Bills on a 1-year deal
Understanding the safety position to be in dire need of a talent infusion, the Buffalo Bills finally found their guy in veteran C.J. Gardner-Johnson. The former Chicago Bears safety is signing a one-year deal worth up to $6 million, per a report shared by ESPN’s Adam Schefter citing information by Gardner-Johnson’s agents in Kevin Conner […]
State of the Buffalo Bills roster: safeties
The Buffalo Bills had a safety problem last season — at least until they didn’t. In the early going, they had Taylor Rapp playing hurt and Cole Bishop playing poorly. After a few weeks, though, they benched Rapp so that he could allow his injured knee to heal — something that caused him to miss […]
Bills news: Recapping Day 1 of the new league year
The NFL’s new league year officially began at 4 p.m. EDT Wednesday afternoon, and with the start of the new year came the Buffalo Bills’ first big splash in free agency, with the team agreeing to a three-year contract with veteran edge rusher Bradley Chubb. The Chubb news represented what Bills fans have long been […]
Buffalo Bills’ updated 2026 NFL Draft picks following pair of trades
Wednesday, March 11 marks the first day of the 2026 NFL season — the new league year, as it’s fondly tagged. It’s the first day when all of the league’s free agents can sign on the dotted line as well as team officially announcing trades that were agreed upon during the offseason. For the Buffalo […]
Buffalo Bills retain OL Ryan Van Demark with RFA tender
The Buffalo Bills made one of their quieter but important offseason housekeeping moves by tendering restricted free agent offensive lineman Ryan Van Demark with the original-round tender, locking in his 2026 salary at $3.52 million. For Buffalo, this is a practical roster protection move. The original-round tender, often described as right of first refusal, allows […]
Kyle Allen’s 2-year contract details reveal cost-effective Bills signing
Quarterback Kyle Allen is headed back to Buffalo Bills after Mitchell Trubisky signed with the Chicago Bears in free agency. It’s a move that gives Buffalo a familiar backup behind Josh Allen, and a cost-effective one that nets out as a two-year deal worth $4.1 million that can climb to $6.1 million through incentives. The […]
