The Buffalo Bills are set to kickoff their preseason this Saturday against the New York Giants and their former offensive coordinator Brian Daboll. And while Josh Allen won't see the field, other Bills starters are expected to get at least a little bit of work.

Ahead of the preseason opener, though, the Bills have made some changes to their roster, including releasing a wide receiver.

Buffalo has released wideout Kelly Akharaiyi, the team announced on Friday. In addition, the Bills have signed kicker Caden Davis. 

Akharaiyi had his biggest year in college in 2023 while with UTEP, catching 48 passes for 1,033 yards for a staggering 21.5 yards per catch.
