While many NFL teams rely on a standout star wide receiver, the Buffalo Bills take a different approach when it comes to their offensive weapons.
Despite not having a single receiver eclipse the 1,000-yard mark last season, the reigning AFC East champions still ranked among the league’s top ten in passing yards—thanks to a well-rounded and deep receiving corps.
Now, the team is continuing to strengthen that depth, as they recently announced a new addition to their receiver group.
The team added veteran wide receiver, who will have a chance to earn a roster spot when minicamps kick off in early June.
The 28-year-old has played in just nine games since entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent following the 2020 draft, but he’s made the most of his recent opportunities and shown promise when called upon. In 2024, he played in three games for the Las Vegas Raiders, recording two catches, including one for a touchdown.
Even if he doesn’t see significant playing time should he make the Bills’ roster, adding depth is always valuable—especially for a team like Buffalo with Super Bowl aspirations.
Once again, the Bills saw their Super Bowl hopes dashed by Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship. As they aim to make another deep playoff run, adding a depth option like Wilkerson could prove beneficial.
Or at the very least… a small boost.
