Buffalo Bills sign OLB Mike Danna to one-year deal

Buffalo Bills sign OLB Mike Danna to one-year deal

The Buffalo Bills are adding a pass-rusher to their defensive line, as the club has announced it has come to terms with veteran edge-rusher Mike Danna, who visited with the team late last week.

Danna, 29, spent the first six seasons of his career with the Chiefs and faced the Bills nine times since his rookie season in 2020. His career high in sacks — 6.5 — came in 2023 and has 25 career tackles for loss in the regular season. The two-time Super Bowl champ adds to a revamped Bills outside pass-rush group that now features free-agent acquisition Bradley...

Is the Buffalo Bills 2026 roster better than 2025?

Is the Buffalo Bills 2026 roster better than 2025?

After the first non-AFC East winning campaign since 2019, the Buffalo Bills can reasonably look for clear improvement in many key areas of their roster for the 2026 season.

Let’s go position-by-position, identifying which position groups are better or worse than last year’s iteration for the Bills.

QUARTERBACK: Push — Sure, there’s a new backup quarterback (Kyle Allen), who doesn’t have anywhere close to the starting experience of Mitch Trubisky, yet this is all about Josh Allen. If anything, it wouldn’t be crazy to assume Allen gets a little boost from having his offensive play-caller now as his head coach....

Bills news: Lessons learned from Rookie Minicamp

Bills news: Lessons learned from Rookie Minicamp

For the rookies, undrafted free agents and veterans who gathered in Orchard Park Friday and Saturday, Rookie Minicamp represented their first opportunity to make a great impression on Brandon Beane and Joe Brady while stating their case to earn a spot on the Buffalo Bills roster.

Today’s edition of Buffalo Rumblinks leads off by hearing what rookie edge rusher TJ Parker, cornerback Davison Igbinosun, and wide receiver Skyler Bell (pictured below) took away from their first taste of life in the NFL, including why Parker thinks Buffalo’s new defensive identity will be “fast, physical and nasty,” how Buffalo’s coaches are...

2026 NFL Draft: What I would have done in Brandon Beane’s place

2026 NFL Draft: What I would have done in Brandon Beane’s place

I genuinely liked this 2026 draft for the Buffalo Bills. And I mean that. After going through every pick and asking myself what I would have done instead, I’m honestly not sure my class is better than Beane’s. That’s a real compliment to the GM and his scouting staff. But I’d be lying if I told you those were the prospects I would have selected if I were the one making the calls. So here it is, on the record — my board, my reasoning, and my accountability.

A few ground rules. I’m locked into every trade Beane made. If...

Assessing value of James Cook’s extension with Buffalo Bills relative to new deals of other top RBs

Assessing value of James Cook’s extension with Buffalo Bills relative to new deals of other top RBs

The James Cook extension keeps looking better and better for the Buffalo Bills.

On Friday, there was contract news regarding two other NFL running backs that changed the perspective on the deal the league’s reigning rushing champ signed before he ran for over 1,600 yards in the regular season in 2025.

NFL Insider Jordan Schultz reported New York Jets running back Breece Hall, a longtime trade candidate, inked a hefty, multi-year contract with Gang Green:

Now, of course, the operative phrase in Schultz’s tweet is “up to,” before the $45.7M figure in that tweet, yet it does appear to be...

Yes, this is an announcement about the date of the release of the 2026 NFL schedule.

What a Buffalo Bills game of tug-o-war reveals early in 2026

What a Buffalo Bills game of tug-o-war reveals early in 2026

Like all NFL teams, the Buffalo Bills are at the point in year where team building takes priority. Each year around this time, Bills players take part in a tug-of-war for little more than bragging rights. While sometimes all that matters are such bragging rights, a video shared by Buffalo’s social media team actually reveals a few rather interesting things beyond Thursday’s shenanigans.

First, there’s Dalton Kincaid who seems to have bulked up — and who wasn’t wearing a knee brace during the tug-of-war bout. Kincaid can be seen running around almost as soon as the video begins. Though this...

Buffalo Bills defensive contributors in 2025 remain free agents

As the Joe Brady era is under way for the new head coach of the Buffalo Bills, there are plenty of questions around what the team’s defense will look like this season. With the expected shift to a 3-4 base defense, many fans have been excited to see what new defensive coordinator Jim Leonard will bring to the club.

While the new defensive scheme can be met with optimism, I can not help but look back on the 2025 squad and the debate around the talent of Buffalo’s defense. Earlier this year, Vic Carucci reported the following for WGRZ, regarding...

2026 NFL schedule release: Which team is your ideal Week 1 opponent for the Buffalo Bills?

Sounds like we might get the 2026 NFL schedule released at its normal, mid-May date, sometime next week, instead of having to wait another seven days leading into Memorial Day weekend.

Which got me thinking (you’re going to read that sentence from me a lot here)… who is your ideal opponent for the Bills in Week 1? Do you want an “easy” opponent? Would you like a primetime challenge for Josh Allen and Co. Everyone wants the start of the regular season at the new Highmark Stadium, right?

And what exactly are you factoring in your decision?

Do you want...

Buffalo Bills host former Chiefs EDGE Mike Danna on visit

Buffalo Bills host former Chiefs EDGE Mike Danna on visit

The Buffalo Bills may still be in the edge-rusher market, even after their selection of T.J. Parker in the 2026 NFL Draft. And to potentially continue to address that premium position, they’re interested in a familiar playoff foe — former Kansas City Chiefs edge-rusher Mike Danna.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported the news of a recent Danna visit to One Bills Drive:

Danna turns 29 in December and spent his first six NFL seasons with the Chiefs after Kansas City picked him in the fifth round in 2020 out of the University of Michigan.

Counting the playoffs, Danna has logged close...

Buffalo Bills must improve 2-pt offense in 2026

Buffalo Bills must improve 2-pt offense in 2026

Since drafting Josh Allen as the team’s franchise quarterback, the Buffalo Bills seldom found difficulty in turning short-yardage situations into huge conversions in the field of play or at the goal line prior to the 2025 NFL season. A physically imposing runner, Allen’s dominance while carrying the is well documented. That, of course, has factored into Buffalo’s success while playing chess with the game’s longest yardage.

Yet, all wasn’t well with Buffalo’s offense in every goal-to-go situation last season. Specifically, two-point tries got the best of the Bills. If it seemed as though the offense never converted a two-point try,...
