The Buffalo Bills are expected to release wide receiver Mecole Hardman this summer as they finalize their roster for training camp. Sports reporter Sal Maiorana predicts the Bills will keep six receivers, not including Hardman, who joined the team last year but primarily served as a return specialist due to injuries. The Bills are focusing on their depth chart, and it appears new addition DJ Moore will lead the group, backed by Khalil Shakir and other emerging players. Reports suggest that Hardman’s lack of versatility on special teams may further hurt his chances of staying on the roster.
