6-13: Bills' OT Dion Dawkins with Jeremy White on WGR (9:41)

On with the #Shnow! @DDawkins66 joins Jeremy White next on WGR! Tune in:

Dawkins - it's never easy, Year 2 is definitely harder with a new offense. We're just taking things day-by-day. #Bills

Dawkins - Allen is a professional already. He's growing day-in and day-out, he's studying and wanting to get better. #Bills

Dawkins - We're becoming a closer knit family on offense. We're all becoming one, and we know more than just everyone's football life. We're going to play harder for each other. #Bills

Dawkins - When I heard Cordy Glenn got traded, I wasn't happy, but I learned how the business goes. You can never get too comfortable, get too complacent. I took it how I saw it, and I just had to be ready to play. #Bills

Dawkins - Glenn is still in connection with me, still a great mentor and the great guy that he is. #Bills

Dawkins - We are going to do whatever it takes to get our teammates to achieve their goals. We want to help get Shady to get to 12K and change. #Bills

Dawkins - Shady is a different cat, and I think he can play for a total of 16-17 years. Who knows... #Bills

Dawkins - Brian Daboll has the swagger and he wants to win. #Bills

All three QBs have their moments on day 2 of minicamp
By Ryan Talbot | Contributing writer

The second day of Buffalo Bills minicamp is in the books. Wednesday's practice saw all three quarterbacks have their moments, some shifting on the offensive line and a few big plays by wide receivers. Here are 7 things we learned.

AJ McCarron hits strength coach (and connects on a few TD passes)
Rod Streater pulls in a prayer
Nathan Peterman connects with Proehl
Josh Allen finds Kerley in red zone
Bodine works with first team offense
Marshall Newhouse gets work with first team
Tyler Davis shows off his leg


7 observations from 2018 Buffalo Bills minicamp, Day Two

ORCHARD PARK, NY (WKBW) - Two days down, and one to go for the Buffalo Bills before they break for the next six weeks. Mandatory minicamp has only one more day left, but during the second day, we got to see more of how the rotations have worked throughout the spring workout, and perhaps how it's going to set up for training camp in late July.

Who stood out during Wednesday's practice? Seven observations from the second day of Bills minicamp:

1) Josh Allen has his best day yet
2) Peterman outplays McCarron once again
3) Taron Johnson shows well at nickel
4) Proehl flashes ability
5) The Groy, Bodine competition continues
6) An undrafted cornerback moves up
7) A two-man kick return battle?

Allen gets red zone work with starters; Proehl, Streater make highlight reel grabs

SAL CAPACCIO


As the Bills continue to rotate quarterbacks with the starting offense, Wednesday was A.J. McCarron’s turn to take the reins. Up to this point throughout OTAs and minicamp, it’s been McCarron and Nathan Peterman going back-and-forth each day getting their crack with the starters, the other running the second team, and rookie Josh Allen working with the third unit. Allen did get six snaps with the starters Tuesday.

Wednesday there was another new wrinkle. Allen got the first shot with the starters when they opened their offense vs. defense portion of practice, as it started with a red zone session.

In Minicamp Week, Retired Eric Wood Is a Spectator

Eric Wood felt like he was missing out when the Bills started their offseason program back in April, and he knows that bug will bite him again once the games begin in September. And he’s even struggled when people have congratulated him the few last months on retiring, since walking away wasn’t really his choice.

But then he snaps back to the reality of what came to light in January.

“The second I want to play again and get upset my career’s over is the second I need to think back to how close I was to really being messed up for the rest of my life, and not being able to live a normal life and raise a family the way I want to,” Wood says now. “So yeah, the timing stunk. But all things considered, we come off a playoff berth, I get out, and I can walk and play golf and run around with my kids.

“I was very close to that not being able to happen. I feel very blessed in that regard.”

Five things we learned during the Bills’ offseason program

Sal Maiorana, Rochester Democrat and Chronicle

ORCHARD PARK — The horn blew Thursday afternoon signifying the end of the Buffalo Bills’mandatory mini-camp and, thus, the start of a nearly six-week summer vacation, so you can imagine the whoops and hollers that filled the windy air along One Bills Drive.

You can argue how much no-pads OTA and mini-camp practices in the spring mean to the future success or failure of an NFL team, so I never read very much into what takes place during these two-plus months of touch football.

Allen has best day yet as Bills end minicamp

SAL CAPACCIO

The Bills’ offense ended their three-day mandatory minicamp on one of the highest notes they could. Rookie quarterback Josh Allen fired a post pattern about 25 yards downfield to rookie wide receiver Austin Proehl, who took the ball the rest of the way untouched for a touchdown. The pass, catch, and run covered about 70 yards total. After the play, the rest of the offense ran onto the field cheering and giving chest bumps to Allen, who clearly had his best day of the week.

Benjamin eagerly catching up in 2nd season with Bills

By JOHN WAWROW

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Kelvin Benjamin burst up the right sideline, timed his turn some 20 yards upfield, and made a leaping catch by using his imposing 6-foot-5 frame to box-out cornerback Tre'Davious White on the opening day of the Bills' mandatory minicamp.

It wasn't so much the catch that thrilled Benjamin. It was, more so, how effortlessly he leaped now that his two once-wobbly knees are feeling better.

"I'm so happy to have both knees working for me at the same time," Benjamin said Wednesday.
