Connor McGovern solidifies role as key offensive lineman for Bills

Connor McGovern remains a central figure for the Buffalo Bills’ offensive line as they prepare for the 2026 season. The center, who joined the Bills in 2023, has excelled in consistency, starting every game for two seasons and playing nearly 92% of the offensive snaps last year. The Bills face a decision on filling the left guard position after David Edwards departed. Despite the changes, the team will likely maintain McGovern's role at center, where his rapport with quarterback Josh Allen is expected to minimize disruptions in protection. McGovern, who possesses a four-year contract worth $52 million, is well-regarded as one of the league’s least penalized linemen.
