2019 NFL Draft: Moving on from Buffalo Bills tight end Charles Clay

Charles Clay may be one of the best tight ends to ever wear a Buffalo Bills uniform, but that’s not really saying much as the team has never had a strong history of tight ends outside of Pete Metzelaars. Still, Clay brought stability to the position for several years, and endured quarterback and scheme changes along the way. However, in the 2018 season, Clay’s production and effectiveness cratered. The eighth-year player caught only 21 passes for a career-low 184 yards. Releasing Clay during the 2019 offseason would net the team $4,500,000 in cap space, a move general manager Brandon Beane is likely to make.
