Three things to know about Rasul Douglas, Bills newly acquired cornerback

The Buffalo Bills have made it official: They have acquired cornerback Rasul Douglas from the Green Bay Packers just prior to the 4 p.m. NFL trade deadline Tuesday in a deal which also brings them a fifth-round pick in 2024, and costs them their 2024 third-round pick.
