The team must cut its roster down to 53 players by 4 p.m. Tuesday. The final preseason game Saturday night serves as the last chance to impress for those on the roster bubble.
This week's edition of the Buffalo Bills Mailbag includes questions about unsigned free agents, the Bills' plans for punt returns, whether the team has improved since last year and more.
Substack Live Replay. Here's a hearty Buffalo Bills chat with @jayskurski.bsky.social from West Palm.
On everything from Joey Bosa to the NFL's PED stance.

James Cook: 65 yards to the house.
Fans are booing the video message asking them not to throw snowballs.
Worth watching: Josh Allen was shaking his left (non-throwing) hand after his first-down run on that drive. Allen is wearing a glove on that hand, which he originally hurt in the season opener.
Spencer Brown is back in the starting lineup for the #Bills, who start with two tight ends on their first offensive play.
The #Bills sent Matt Milano out for the coin toss in his first game back from injury.

Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen's heroics helped the Sabres shut out the Kings in a 1-0 win.
My takeaways from LA, from the 5-for-5 penalty kill to Jiri Kulich's audition at center:
"That’s just a good road win, right?"

Buffalo Bills slot receiver Khalil Shakir ranks No. 2 in the NFL in yards after the catch with 462, behind only Cincinnati’s Ja’Marr Chase, who has 489, according to Pro Football Focus.

“He cares so much about this game. It was cool to see him go in there and play as well as he did.”
Ryan Van Demark held his own in stepping in at right tackle for the injured Spencer Brown against the Chiefs — and his teammates loved it. New at The Buffalo News.

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes' first and final throws of the game found their way into the hands of the Buffalo Bills' defense.
On the Bills' win over Kansas City, and how Buffalo's season-long streak of takeaways reflects what this defense can do:

Josh Allen.
That's it. That's the Bluesky?
O'Cyrus Torrence just blocked Chris Jones one-on-one, giving Josh Allen time for that completion. Excellent rep by Torrence.
Khalil Shakir takes a short pass for a 22-yard gain on the final play of the third quarter. The Bills will start the final quarter with a first and 10 at the Chiefs' 27-yard line.
Curtis Samuel draws an obvious pass interference penalty. ... The past couple games, Samuel has started to have a positive impact for the Buffalo offense.
Josh Allen throws a perplexing interception on fourth down. What an ugly sequence that was for the #Bills' offense.
#Bills catch a big break there. Xavier Worthy was wide open, but he couldn't get both feet in bounds on first down. ... On second down, Patrick Mahomes was hit as he throws incomplete.
Ok, James Cook. That was a grown-man touchdown run. #Bills go back up. ... Extra point by Tyler Bass is good this time.
We're even on blown challenges. Amari Cooper's catch holds up for a 25-yard gain.
Taylor Rapp is questionable to return for the #Bills with a foot injury.
Taylor Rapp is heading to the #Bills' locker room. He was limping coming off the field.
Touchdown, Chiefs. Xavier Worthy (who else?) and Kansas City's new kicker, Spencer Shrader, makes the extra point (imagine that!) Kansas City leads, 7-6, with 14:53 left in the first half.
