1-3 (1 WR)

Zack Moss (RB), Dawson Knox (TE), Tommy Sweeney (TE), Tyler Kroft (TE), Stefon Diggs (WR)

Similar to the previous personnel grouping, this is one that is going to be utilized in short yardage and goal line situations. While the Bills would have three tight ends in this situation it wouldn’t be surprising to see an additional offensive linemen added in as a tight end versus using Tyler Kroft, who doesn’t necessarily excel at blocking.

This is also a formation that the coaching staff would lean on Zack Moss more than Devin Singletary as the Bills would likely use power runs in this grouping.
