Bills releasing WR Kerley after one-game look

In a surprise move, the Buffalo Bills released veteran wide receiver Jeremy Kerley on Saturday after one game with the team.

Kerley played in 69 percent of the offensive snaps in Sunday's season-opening loss to the Baltimore Ravens, catching two passes for 7 yards. His 53-man roster spot had appeared safe given his role as the Bills' No. 3 and slot receiver.

Without Kerley, the Bills enter Sunday's home game against the Los Angeles Chargers with five wide receivers on their roster: Kelvin Benjamin, Zay Jones and Andre Holmes as well as rookie sixth-round pick Ray-Ray McCloud and undrafted rookie Robert Foster.
