The Buffalo Bills enter the offseason $10.27 million over the cap and have until March 12 at 3:00 PM CT to be salary cap compliant. Buffalo will restructure and renegotiate contracts and release players until they have enough cap space to re-sign players and add free agents. Because of this, the Bills will be very selective in giving players contract extensions.
One player who is a free agent is their special teamer/backup offensive player.
The Buffalo Bills special teamer is an RFA
Quintin Morris completed the final year of his exclusive rights tender and is a restricted free agent. Morris had a solid 2024 campaign on special teams, recording a career-high four tackles, but he had a minimal role in the passing game and on offense as a whole, playing 214 snaps. He caught five passes on eight targets for 36 yards and one touchdown in 16 games and three starts.
Since Morris was undrafted, his RFA tender is classified as the right of first refusal only, worth $3.26 million, non-guaranteed in 2025. The Bills have until March to exercise or decline the tender.
Bills make $3 million decision on talented special teamer
According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Buffalo Bills will not tender Quintin Morris. As a result, Morris will be an unrestricted free agent. However, as Rapoport points out, the Bills are interested in retaining the special teamer and backup tight end, but on a cheaper contract.
The #Bills have elected not to tender TE Quintin Morris, source said, though they would still like to bring him back.
A TE who can catch and block, Morris started three games.
