The Buffalo Bills haven’t been among the most active teams in 2026 NFL free agency, but they have made some moves.

NFL free agency can have a transformative effect on franchises, in both good and bad ways.

Last season, the Kansas City Chiefs’ running back room was heavily scrutinized, and for good reason.
