New Buffalo Bills Recevier Hurt on First Day of Training Camp

The Buffalo Bills have a lot of additions to their receiver room this year.

After trading away star wideout Stefon Diggs and losing starter Gabe Davis in Free Agency, the Bills brought in several free agents, as well as their first pick in the NFL Draft, to give QB Josh Allen more options to throw to.

Keon Coleman was taken 33rd overall, the first pick of the second round, after the Bills traded down twice in the NFL Draft. Ther are high expectations of him going into the season and, so far, he has looked very good including catching a touchdown today in training camp.

Another receiver the Bills have high hopes for is Khalil Shakir, who came on big in the second half of last season and may be a star in the making. Tight End Dalton Kincaid is also expected to have a big second year in the league.

As far as new additions, the BIlls signed receivers Curtis Samuel, who is expected to start, as well as Marquez Valdes-Scantling,  Mack Hollins, and  Chase Claypool.

Claypool has had a rocky go of it in the league. When the Pittsburgh Steelers drafted him he immediate made an impact with an aging Ben Roethlisberger, but fell off after his retirement. Since then he has had low production and some questions about his commitment to the game. Still, the Bills know he has all the potential to be a starter in this league.

That potential may have to wait, however.

Claypool came up injured on day 1 of training camp.

Now a limp could be minor. We will have to wait and see how things go.

The good news is Claypool was moving around after practice:
