Buffalo Bills: 5 players who will outperform their cap hit in 2021

Number 4: Isaiah McKenzie

Cap Hit: $987,500

Rank among wide receivers: 125th

Another player who returned to the Buffalo Bills this offseason on a one-year deal is wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie. The speedy wide receiver has been with the team since midway through the 2019 season when the Bills claimed him on waivers.

Over the past two seasons, McKenzie has found his way into the game plan by being a ‘gadget’ player. However, this season he is hoping to shed that label and wants to be viewed as a wide receiver.

He certainly showed he was more than capable to play in the slot in the regular season finale last year with six receptions, 65 receiving yards, and two touchdowns against the Miami Dolphins.

However, the area he will likely have the most impact, and where he can outperform his cap hit, is on special teams. If he wins the return job, he will be a key part of this team and be a great value signing.
