The Bills open the preseason Friday night at Detroit, and the story is as much about who won't play as who will.
Topping that list is quarterback Josh Allen who just signed a six-year contract extension worth $258-million. The Bills are obviously taking a cautious approach, and Allen isn't alone.
Head coach Sean McDermott says many starters won't see action, and those that do will be decided on a case by case basis.
Factoring into that is that due to a restructured three game preseason, the Bills face a round of roster cuts next week. Keeping that in mind, McDermott says the preference is to use these game reps to evaluate younger talent as they and other NFL teams begin the process of trimming their rosters.
