After releasing most of their secondary to create cap space, the Buffalo Bills have re-signed one of their cornerbacks in Cam Lewis. According to his agent Sean Stellato, Lewis signed a two-year deal worth $4 million to stay in Buffalo until the 2026 season. This was first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Lewis, who re-signed with the Bills for one year last season after totaling 275 snaps on defense and special teams played all 17 games in 2023. He combined for 21 total tackles on defense but only played 13 percent of snaps in the secondary. However, he was productive as a special teams player and totaled a 75 percent snap share in that department.

The Bills let go of Jordan Poyer and Tre’Davious White ahead of next season, which gives Lewis an opportunity to step up in the secondary and take more snaps alongside Rasul Douglas. Who they traded for last season from the Green Bay Packers.
Lewis has also taken snaps at safety and both sides are currently out of a job with Poyer released and Micah Hyde contemplating retirement. There will be a large opportunity for Lewis to become a vital piece in Buffalo’s secondary moving forward.
Buffalo is -$12 million Against Salary Cap Heading into Free Agency
Buffalo, who is one of the few teams in negative territory when it comes to salary cap according to Spotrac will not be able to make many moves in free agency outside of re-signings. Lewis has a real chance to develop into a piece for their future at a reasonable cost for the next two seasons.
