Bills Place Claypool, Buechele on Injured Reserve

The Buffalo Bills have placed wide receiver Chase Claypool and quarterback Shane Buechele on injured reserve due to a toe injury and a neck injury, respectively, ending their seasons prematurely. In response, the Bills signed wide receivers Damiere Byrd and Deon Cain, as well as quarterback Ben DiNucci to one-year contracts. Claypool, who joined the Bills in May after a tumultuous stint with the Chicago Bears and Miami Dolphins, had impressed during OTAs but struggled with injuries throughout training camp. This move comes amidst broader roster adjustments following the departures of Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis earlier in the offseason. Former Tennessee Titans and New York Jets wide receiver Corey Davis is also trying out for the Bills, potentially to fill the void left by Claypool.
