The Buffalo Bills announced they have released five players before the 4 PM deadline on Tuesday.

The second round of roster cuts has been announced for the Buffalo Bills as they had to release five players to get down to 81 players. Most teams have to get to 80 players but the Bills have a roster exemption for running back Christian Wade and that is why they are able to have a roster of 81 players.

The five players in this round of cuts included linebacker Tyrell Adams, offensive lineman Tyler Gauthier, tight end Bug Howard, wide receiver Lance Lenior, and safety Tariq Thompson.
