The Bills made a series of cuts, including running back Fred Jackson, to get down to 75 players and then they made a couple of moves to further shuffle up the roster.
The team claimed two players — center Dalton Freeman and linebacker Kevin Reddick — off of waivers after they failed to make the first cut with their previous teams. They waived linebacker Jimmy Gaines and tackle Tyson Chandler to make room for the new arrivals.
Bills General Manager Doug Whaley reportedly went “rogue” with the decision to cut Jackson, but Freeman’s arrival likely came with Ryan’s seal of approval.
