T.J. Sanders expected to play key role in Bills' defense this season

T.J. Sanders, a second-year defensive tackle for the Buffalo Bills, is anticipated to have a significant impact in the 2026 season. After an inconsistent rookie year, Sanders showed improvement after returning from a knee injury and playing multiple positions. This versatility is expected to benefit the Bills under new defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard's scheme. The Bills anticipate Sanders will play primarily at defensive end and tackle, with expectations for him to perform better in a structured setting. He is currently participating in offseason workouts as the team prepares for training camp.
