The Buffalo Bills on Friday processed a little contractual move to free up salary cap space. Entering the week with less than $1.5 million in cap space, the Bills converted part of safety Jordan Poyer’s salary into a signing bonus to more than double their available 2021 cap space. The news comes to us from Field Yates.
