Back on the fields for their final week at St. John Fisher University in 2024, the Bills are preparing for the coming preseason
The Buffalo Bills are back in Rochester, NY following their annual “Return of the Blue & Red” scrimmage in front of fans at Highmark Stadium on Friday. Results coming out of that session revealed a strong showing by the defense, with cornerbacks Kaiir Elam and Taron Johnson nabbing interceptions.
While there were struggles early on, the offense finished Friday’s scrimmage strong in red zone work. Fans in the stands and social media were abuzz over Tyler Bass’ missed field goal, which was anything other than a given make. Sal Capaccio noted that rookie punter Jack Browning, who has now been released, was holding for Bass.
Kicking period. Tyler Bass went 5/6, missing last kick from 52 yards out. Notable that Jack Browning was holding.
