THE FORGOTTEN
Eli Harold, EJ Gaines, Jake Fisher, LaAdrian Waddle
LaAdrian Waddle was expected to compete for a depth position on the offensive line, possibly as a swing tackle for the unit. Unfortunately, Waddle missed the season with a quad injury, which he suffered in training camp. The two-time Super Bowl champ could still be in Buffalo’s future if the Bills feel he could provide additional depth along the line moving forward.
Gaines was placed on injured reserve in August with a core injury. He was expected to compete for a depth cornerback spot opposite Tre’Davious White
Eli Harold was traded for Ryan Bates in early August. Harold could not beat out Darryl Johnson or Eddie Yarbrough during training camp and was viewed as an extraneous piece along the line.
Jake Fisher was an offensive lineman was making the transition to tight end. However, with Lee Smith’s signing, the role of the tight end acting as a sixth lineman was filled, and Fisher was released after only a month-and-a-half on Buffalo’s roster.
