Buffalo Bills 2021 Player Profile: Tight End Quintin Morris
Can Quintin Morris make it two years in a row that a UDFA tight end makes the Buffalo Bills 53-man roster?
Last year, Reggie Gilliam was a great story for the Buffalo Bills as he entered training camp as an undrafted free agent fullback. However, during camp he moved from fullback to tight end and it was a great move as he would end up making the 53-man roster and appear in 14 games, mostly on special teams.
This year, the Bills have another undrafted free agent tight end who could be a surprise and make the 53-man roster. That is Quintin Morris out of Bowling Green and he is an athletic player that if things fall a certain way could have a role this season.

College Stats
Quintin Morris started out as a wide receiver at Bowling Green and would play three seasons there and his best season was in 2018 when he had 42 receptions, 516 receiving yards, and seven touchdowns.
In his final season in college, he would move to tight end and had 20 receptions and 248 receiving yards in five games.
Expectations for the 2021 season with the Buffalo Bills
The tight end position is pretty wide open right now and while Dawson Knox or Jacob Hollister would be considered favorites, they are far from guaranteed the starting job. A player like Quintin Morris, while still learning the position, is an athletic player that could be a good fit in this offense.
Morris is a player worth watching during the preseason and if he can show enough as a receiver, as well as prove he can contribute on special teams, he could find his way onto the Buffalo Bills 53-man roster this season.
