The Buffalo Bills have the option to protect up to four practice squad players each week from being poached to join another team’s active roster. This week they only chose three before they head to Miami to play the Dolphins.

Last week, DT Brandin Bryant was also on the list but he was not included this week. Perhaps that says something about the health of Star Lotulelei heading into Week 2. The Bills’ starter at defensive tackle missed the game with a calf injury.

The rules blocking teams from adding someone from the practice squad were put in place so teams had players who knew their system that wouldn’t have to go through the multi-day NFL entry program during the COVID-19 pandemic.
