Raheem Blackshear epitomizes the steep challenge to make Buffalo Bills’ roster

The Buffalo Bills, undefeated through two preseason games, have been helped by several standout performances from players on the roster. Rookie receiver Khalil Shakir leads the team in receiving with 151 yards on 8 catches (an excellent 18.9 yards per reception). Reserve linemen Bobby Hart and Cody Ford pulverized the Broncos in the team’s 42-15 smackdown on Saturday. But the most impressive player, at this point, has been Raheem Blackshear, the running back out of Virginia Tech.

His stats through two games definitely stand out: 11 carries for 69 yards and two TDs, plus six catches on seven targets totaling 81 yards.
