4 Buffalo Bills veterans who could lose snaps to rookies in 2024
The Buffalo Bills held their rookie minicamp this past weekend, which for some players was an opportunity to try out and hopefully earn a contract, like linebacker Joe Andreessen did. However, for a majority of these players they have at least gotten the contract but their work is far from done.
This was the chance to make a first impression on the coaches and front office after they were either drafted in the 2024 NFL Draft or signed a contract shortly thereafter as an undrafted free agent. In the past, the Bills have drafted with an eye towards the future and some players were probably going to be eased in and given a chance to develop.
However, with the moves the Bills had to make this offseason due to the salary cap, this rookie class will be expected to contribute almost right away. While the Bills won't be handing these rookies starting jobs there are a number of first-year players that could be key pieces sooner rather than later.
