3 Bills players land on top-25 performance-based pay list for 2023

Money is nice:

Three players on the Buffalo Bills have earned three top-25 performanced-based pay distribution bonuses from the NFL for their efforts during the 2023 NFL season.

The NFL included offensive linemen Spencer Brown and O’Cyrus Torrence, along with linebacker Terrel Bernard  on their list of players getting a pay boost following last season.

All of the bonuses handed out to players is based on their snap counts and salaries. In many cases, the bump in cash goes to players still on their lower rookie contract salaries which is the case with the Bills trio.

The full breakdown of bonuses for each of the Bills players is as follows:

  • OL Spencer Brown: $912,723
  • OL O’Cyrus Torrence: $847,180
  • LB Terrel Bernard: $777,092

Best photos from rookie season of Bills 2023 draft class

Best photos from rookie season of #Bills 2023 draft class:

The Buffalo Bills did not have the biggest of draft classes in 2023 but their haul from it ended up being an impactful one.

At the top, tight end Dalton Kincaid slowly came along during his first year in the pros after being a first-round pick. Then as a surprise selection in Round 2, offensive lineman O’Cyrus Torrence became a Day 1 for Buffalo.

On the flip side, some players from the Bills’ recent draft class were even too good to stick around. The likes of seventh rounder Nick Broeker now lines up on the Houston Texans’ offensive line after Buffalo had to cut Broeker and try to get him on their practice squad.

Following the conclusion of all six draft picks’ first year in the NFL, here are some of the top photos of each from their first season in 2023:

Report card: #Bills top #Steelers, 31-17:

The Buffalo Bills have worked their way through the Pittsburgh Steelers and are now onto the Divisional round of the AFC postseason.

Buffalo put together an effort that was strong throughout the contest. But not all three phases. While not a team that has covered the spread often this season, Pittsburgh was behind it throughout most of the game because of a strong effort up-and-down the Bills roster.

With that, here’s Bills Wire’s report card following the team’s 31-17 Wild Card win:

Buffalo (6-6) lost 37-34 in overtime against Philadelphia (10-1). Now the Bills have to take the defeat and push it far, far away. From here, the Bills will hope their march toward the postseason does not fall short for the first time since 2018.

Buffalo’s game plans fell short, and in the end, that was reflected by the final score.

The same can be said for the grades the team received following the contest, too.
