ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — The NFL's cutdown day is here, and the Buffalo Bills are making moves.

The Bills have to trim their roster to 53 players by 4 p.m. Tuesday. With the deadline looming, the Bills have reportedly released four more players.

According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, the Bills have released tight end Jacob Hollister, guard Jamil Douglas, offensive lineman Jack Anderson, and wide receiver Tanner Gentry.

A surprise: The #Bills are releasing TE Jacob Hollister, per source.

He had 66 catches and six TDs over the past two seasons in Seattle. With so many teams looking for help at the position, Hollister should have options.
