Tyler Boyd

Among all the free agents, Tyler Boyd is probably the best still available and has the least amount of questions. He has often been that third wide receiver in the Bengals offense and has had 65 or more receptions in five of the past six years.

In his career, Boyd has played in 120 games with 513 receptions on 753 targets for 6,000 yards and 31 touchdowns. More importantly, he has had a catch rate of 68.1% for his career and has proven to be a reliable pass catcher.

The biggest question for the Buffalo Bills is how Boyd might fit within this offense. While he has the size to play outside at 6'2" and 203 pounds, he has primarily been a slot receiver. That is the one spot on the wide receiver depth chart that is pretty well set with Khalil Shakir and Curtis Samuel.

If offensive coordinator Joe Brady and head coach Sean McDermott believe he can be productive on the outside, he is another veteran that can help lead this inexperienced position group.
