Overview

  • The Bills hosted Eddy Piñeiro, Zane Gonzalez, and Greg Joseph for workouts on Thursday, according to the league transaction wire and multiple reports.
  • Tyler Bass returned for the preseason finale against Tampa Bay and went 3-for-4 on field goals with two made extra points after missing most of camp.
  • Buffalo released fill-in kicker Caden Davis following Bass’s return, and no veteran signing has been announced with the opener at Baltimore approaching.
  • Reporting indicates Piñeiro also visited the Dolphins this week, creating possible competition if the Bills opt to add a veteran option.
  • Career figures for the tryout group include Piñeiro at 88.1% on field goals, Joseph at 82.3% with a 61-yard long, and Gonzalez at 80% after a 2024 stint in Washington.
