Tight end (4)

Dawson Knox, Lee Sith, Tommy Sweeney, Tyler Kroft

Cuts: Nate Becker, Jason Croom

Pretty cut and paste for the tight end unit throughout the offseason. Dawson Knox needs to improve his drop problem, but he’s going to get that chance as Buffalo’s No. 1, while Tyler Kroft will get an opportunity to just stay healthy and contribute a bit more.

Tommy Sweeney was entering a big training camp this offseason in regard to and his long-term future, but who knows how things will unfold thanks to COVID? Both he and Knox need to show they’re the answer for years to come. In the short-term, both will be be on the Bills  roster again, as will Lee Smith, who will take the bulk of extra-blocking duties and provide a veteran presence.
