ESPN says Buffalo Bills player would benefit from joining a new team in the offseason
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports

ESPN thinks there's a Buffalo Bills player, who happens to be a pending free agent, that could benefit from a change of scenery this offseason. 

Alaina Getzenberg, who covers the Bills for ESPN, thinks wide receiver Trent Sherfield would benefit from switching teams this offseason. 

From ESPN: The Bills brought in Sherfield on a one-year deal in 2023 with the receiver coming off a career year with the Dolphins (30 receptions for 417 yards and two touchdowns). Despite a not-that-crowded wide receiver room, Sherfield's opportunities were limited. He had just 11 receptions for 86 yards and a touchdown that was caught in the final regular-season game. Even with receiver Gabe Davis (knee) out with an injury in the playoffs, Sherfield had only one reception for 7 yards. Buffalo is where he would like to be, and he is a positive locker room presence, but a new team with more opportunities might be a better fit.

Sherfield is a former undrafted free agent out of Vanderbilt who has bounced around in the NFL the last few seasons. He signed with the Bills after a solid 2022 season with the Miami Dolphins. 

Unfortunately for Sherfield, the opportunities just haven't been there for him in Buffalo. 

Sherfield showed in 2022 that he belongs on an NFL roster. But he might need to find a team that can better utilize his skill set.
