Dawson Knox Misses Practice With Hamstring Injury

Wednesday, July 23, 2:46 PM

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (hamstring) was absent from Wednesday's practice. Bills head coach Sean McDermott declined to offer a timetable for his return, saying the team is taking it "one day at a time." The 28-year-old was placed on the active/non-football injury list on Tuesday, but can be activated anytime. Knox appeared in 16 games last season (13 starts), totaling 311 receiving yards on 22 catches and scoring once. With Dalton Kincaid continuing to emerge as a featured weapon in Buffalo's offense, Knox will need to make the most of his reps once healthy to maintain a significant role in 2025.

Mason Taylor Agrees to Rookie Contract with Jets

Friday, July 18, 10:58 AM

The New York Jets and tight end Mason Taylor have agreed to terms on a four-year rookie contract, according to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network. The Jets drafted Taylor out of LSU in the second round of the 2025 draft, and he appears to be the favorite to start at tight end as a rookie. In his final college season at LSU, Taylor had 55 catches for 546 yards and two touchdowns. Previous reporting has indicated that the Jets expect him to contribute to the offense immediately, and there's certainly an opportunity for pass-catchers behind star wide receiver Garrett Wilson to emerge. New York's other options at tight end entering camp are Jeremy Ruckert, Stone Smartt, and Zack Kuntz. Now that he's under contract with the team, Taylor will have a full training camp to build chemistry with Jets quarterback Justin Fields.
