The Bills tried and missed at Greg Olsen in an early free agency attempt. It looks like the team is now probably going to give Tyler Kroft another whirl there.
According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Kroft restructured his contract with the Bills. It gets reduced next season from $5.6 million due to $4 million with $3.4 million in guaranteed money. The final year of the contract in 2021 has also been voided as well. Because of that $3.4 million that the Bills will have to pay him, there’s a good likelihood he’s on the team’s roster next season.
In 11 games played last season, Kroft had just six catches for 71 yards. He added one touchdown, a key one against the Steelers to clinch the win and send Buffalo to the plaoffs on Sunday Night Football.
Aside from that, Kroft took the backseat to rookie Dawson Knox, who seized on an early-season opportunity to get snaps when Kroft suffered two ankle injuries.
