Overview
- Prater re-aggravated his right quadriceps during the Week 18 win over the Jets and did not kick in the second half.
- Sean McDermott said the team hosted tryouts Tuesday, including Younghoe Koo and Matt Gay, before choosing Wright as depth.
- Wright, 29, has kicked for multiple teams, is 60-for-68 on field goals and 45-for-47 on extra points in his career, and previously spent a season with Jacksonville.
- To create space, Buffalo released offensive lineman Richard Gouraige from the practice squad and signed kicker Maddux Trujillo to a reserve/future contract.
- Tyler Bass remains unlikely to return this season, and the Bills have prepared contingencies such as two-point tries and using the punter for kickoffs if Prater is unavailable.
