Buffalo Rumblings
Plus, thoughts from head coach Sean McDermott at the NFL Scouting Combine.
Khalil Shakir was the Buffalo Bills’ leading receiver last year, and on Tuesday, the Bills and Shakir came to terms on a contract extension that will keep him with Buffalo through the 2029 NFL season.
Today’s edition of Buffalo Rumblinks leads off by examining the news of Shakir’s four-year contract extension.
The Bills and wide receiver Khalil Shakir have reached an agreement on a four-year contract extension, keeping the dynamic slot receiver in Buffalo through the 2029 NFL season. Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the extension is reportedly “worth up to $60.2 million, including $32 million guaranteed at signing with $18 million paid in the first 12 months.”
Shakir led the Bills with a career-high 821 receiving yards last year as the Bills went 13-4 in capturing their fifth-consecutive AFC East title — a campaign that saw quarterback Josh Allen win his first NFL MVP award.
At the annual NFL Scouting Combine, head coach Sean McDermott discussed the newest members of Buffalo’s coaching staff; how he’s anticipating more on-field growth from his young core of players this year; and running back James Cook’s public plea for a new contract.
