The Buffalo Bills have released defensive back Siran Neal.

The transaction was reported by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport only a short time after the news that All-Pro safety Jordan Poyer would be let go as well:

Neal, 29, was occasionally listed on the roster as a safety but more often than not was a nickel defender and key special teams player.

Neal was selected by Buffalo in the fifth-round of the 2018 NFL draft. In that time, he only made one start on defense but managed to force three fumbles with the Bills.

With Neal’s departure, the team will free up $2.8 million on the salary cap. Prior to the Poyer news, Over The Cap had the Bills still at over $32M over the 2024 salary cap.

Along with Neal and Poyer being released, safety Micah Hyde is also a pending free agent. The team’s secondary is likely going to have several new faces on it in 2024.

Bills Wire will continue to bring rosters updates throughout the 2024 offseason.
