Following final roster reductions on Sunday, the Buffalo Bills signed 17 players to their practice squad on Monday. The team did not claim any players from the waiver wire to fill their 53-man roster but moved to add depth to their practice unit. Among the signings are veterans Shaq Thompson, who played for the team in 2025, and offensive tackle Jedrick Wills Jr. Defensive tackle Travis Clayton qualifies as an international player, allowing the organization to carry an additional practice squad member beyond the standard 16-player limit. The team previously released seventh-round draft pick Toriano Pride Jr., who was subsequently claimed by the Cleveland Browns. Buffalo roster management remains constrained by high veteran depth, making it difficult to retain late-round selections.
