Buffalo Bills: 4 players on defense to watch against the Bears
Andre Smith
Another player on the roster bubble hoping to build off a good performance in the first preseason game is Andre Smith. Over the past two seasons, one with the Carolina Panthers and last year with the Buffalo Bills, Smith has developed a reputation of being a very good special teams player.
Last week against the Detroit Lions, Andre Smith showed he could be more than that. He played well on the defensive side of the ball and finished the game with eight total tackles and one tackle for a loss.
The position battle for those final linebacker positions has been one of the most competitive with players like Tyrel Dodson, Tyrell Adams, and Marquel Lee competing with Andre Smith. If the linebacker can put together another game at linebacker like he did last week, his chances to make the 53-man roster have to increase significantly.
