The Bills have released Jake Kumerow, per a club announcement. The move comes just days after Kumerow scored his first Bills touchdown reception against the Broncos.
Kumerow has shifted around the Bills’ roster this year with most of his playing time coming as a special teams player. His latest promotion was prompted by John Brown‘s ankle injury — now, Brown is nearly ready to return, so Buffalo had to find room for him somewhere. Kumerow could still circle back to the Bills, but Buffalo has to wait 24 hours to see if any other team puts a claim on him.
You can expect teams to consider claiming Kumerow, who offers a decent amount of pro experience. Before he hooked on with the Bills, Kumerow registered 20 catches for 322 yards and two touchdowns with the Packers from 2018 to 2019.
