The NFL’s franchise tag window opened on February 22, and teams had until 3:59 PM EST on Tuesday to assign the franchise tag to any of their free agents.
For the seventh straight season, the Buffalo Bills didn’t use the franchise tag on anyone.
After reaching terms with cornerback/special teams standout Siran Neal (three-year deal) and linebacker Tyrel Dodson (one-year deal), the Bills only had 13 unrestricted free agents eligible for the tag:
Mario Addison (DE), Ike Boettger (G), Matt Breida (RB), Vernon Butler (DT), Jerry Hughes (DE), Taiwan Jones (RB/special teams), Efe Obada (DE), Isaiah McKenzie (WR), Harrison Phillips (DT), Emmanuel Sanders (WR), Mitchell Trubisky (QB), Levi Wallace (CB), and Justin Zimmer (DT).
