Prior to free agency, the Buffalo Bills made significant personnel adjustments. With $43.3 million more over the $255.4 million cap heading into the offseason, general manager Brandon Beane of the Bills suddenly cut loose six veterans.
Tre’Davious White, an All-Pro cornerback, was cut. In 2020, White agreed to a four-year contract extension worth $69 million, which kept him under contract until 2025. But White’s 2022 NFL season was cut short by an ACL tear, and in Week 4, he tore his Achilles.
According to WGR 550’s Sal Capaccio, Beane stated the Bills are “probably $6-7M under the cap right now” while addressing reporters during the NFL’s annual meeting on Sunday, March 24. The $10 million that White’s release will open for on June 1st is not included in that estimate.
Beane stated that White might still visit Orchard Park, despite the fact that he has drawn interest from other teams in free agency.
WKBW’s Matthew Bové wrote, “Beane said the door is not closed on a Tre’Davious White return.” “Said that rather than just cutting him immediately, they decided to make a post-June 1 cut for him since it would free up an extra $4 million later on. desired the adaptability.
