The Buffalo Bills have signed wide receiver Greg Dortch to the team’s practice squad. The move provides the team with an experienced punt returner, as Dortch has recorded 99 career returns with an 11.6-yard average during the 2025 season. Beyond his special teams contributions, the veteran wideout could provide a supplemental option for an offense looking to improve its ability to create separation against man coverage. Buffalo has sought to upgrade its receiver room following a 2025 season where the unit struggled with injuries and personnel depth. Dortch, who has 145 career catches, ranked 26th among 149 receivers in man-coverage separation last year according to film-based metrics. His addition follows earlier offseason acquisitions of D.J. Moore and Skyler Bell to a wide receiver group that has faced challenges generating space for quarterback Josh Allen.
