Mecole Hardman Jr. News
Friday, January 16, 4:45 PM
The Buffalo Bills announced on Friday that they elevated wide receiver Mecole Hardman from the practice squad to the active 53-man roster for Saturday's Divisional Round game against the hosting Denver Broncos. The team also elevated running back Frank Gore Jr. from the practice squad. Hardman will give Buffalo extra receiver depth after Gabe Davis (knee) and Tyrell Shavers (knee) both tore their ACLs in last Sunday's win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the Wild-Card round of the playoffs. Joshua Palmer (ankle) is also on Injured Reserve for the Bills, so their depth at the WR position behind Khalil Shakir will be tested in Denver. The 27-year-old Hardman is unlikely to have a big role on offense this weekend against a tough defense. In just two regular-season games in 2025, he had one target and no receptions.

Lewis Bond News
Wednesday, June 24, 9:33 AM
Houston Texans rookie sixth-round wide receiver Lewis Bond has made plays and has turned heads through the offseason, to the point where he already has an online team fanbase called the Lewis Bond Fan Club, according to DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN. The Boston College standout still has a ways to go heading into training camp, but he's a young receiver to watch going into his first year in the NFL. In his five years at Boston College, the 5-foot-10, 190-pounder had 2,385 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns on 213 receptions across 46 games played. Even though he has stood out this offseason, Bond has a steep uphill battle to climb to make the 53-man roster going into Week 1 of the regular season, given Houston's crowded WR room. Nico Collins is the unquestioned WR1 of the group, but both second-year wideouts Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel figure to have bigger roles in Year 2. The Texans are also still hoping that Tank Dell (knee) can return from a devastating knee injury that kept him out for all of 2025. Bond will be battling Xavier Hutchinson and Justin Watson for a roster spot in training camp and the preseason.
