The Buffalo Bills are ready to hit the field for 2025 NFL training camp. The team will do so with a 90-man roster.
Of course quarterback Josh Allen is going to have eyes on him. Aside from him, who else are players worth watching as the team gears up for another season?

Here are five players to watch for during 2025 training camp:
WR Keon Coleman

The Bills did not make any huge investments toward their wide receiver room. Josh Palmer is something you would consider a big-time addition.
The reason Buffalo’s front office decided not to do that has to do with Allen… but Coleman, too. The Bills are hopeful he will improve in his second season.
DT TJ Sanders

The Bills have two defensive linemen in Larry Ogunjobi and Michael Hoecht who have sit out six games at the start of next season because of suspension. Of all the players that will have a great look at more snaps to start the year because of those suspension is Sanders, Buffalo’s second-round rookie.

That is, pending a good showing at training camp.
TE Dalton Kincaid
Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (86) puts his hands up and catches successfully the pass while Denver Broncos safety P.J. Locke (6) keeps pace with him during the second half of the Buffalo Bills wild card game against the Denver Broncos at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park on Jan. 12, 2025.
Kincaid has played decent during the course of his first two seasons in the NFL. However, he has not been considered anything close to an elite NFL tight end in his pro career. Can Year 3 finally see Kincaid earns this status?
RB James Cook

The Bills’ Pro Bowl running back sat out all of the voluntary workouts this spring. He’s looking for a new contract from the team which has not come.
However, Cook was back in Buffalo for minicamp. Now he’s in Rochester for the start of training camp. That does not mean Cook won’t be distracted. Can he manage the off-field issues and still play at a Pro Bowl level?

CB Maxwell Hairston

Hairston was Buffalo’s first-round pick at the 2025 NFL draft. Does that matter? Not really. Just as Kaiir Elam, who was also a top selection by the Bills who played cornerback.
Hairston will need to earn any playing time he gets.
