Bills Release Veteran Wide Receiver Tavon Austin, per Report

For the second time this year, wide receiver Tavon Austin has been released by the Bills, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo.

WGR 550’s Sal Capaccio was the first to report the move, with both sides reportedly mutually agreeing to part ways. The wide receiver, who was on Buffalo’s practice squad, reportedly “was not happy with his lack of opportunity to get on the field.”

Austin signed a one-year deal with the Bills on June 3 but was cut on Aug. 22. By the end of August, he was brought onto the practice squad and he had yet to be activated during the regular season.
