Analysts suggest Buffalo Bills pursue trade for linebacker Patrick Queen

The Buffalo Bills face lingering concerns regarding the health of starters Terrel Bernard and Dorian Williams at linebacker. NFL analyst Brad Gagnon suggested that the team target Pittsburgh Steelers veteran Patrick Queen as a trade option to bolster their defensive depth. Queen, a two-time Pro Bowler, recorded 120 tackles last season and is entering the final year of his current contract. While the team already added veteran Shaq Thompson to the practice squad and drafted Kaleb Elarms-Orr, analysts indicate that additional help could prove necessary as the team shifts away from the era of Matt Milano. Buffalo continues to navigate these roster adjustments ahead of their September 13 regular season opener against the Houston Texans. The team enters the week as 1.5-point favorites for the road matchup.
