The Bills placed Buechele (neck) on injured reserve Tuesday. Buechele suffered a significant neck injury during Buffalo's preseason opener against the Bears. Unless he can reach an injury settlement with the team, Buechele will have to spend the entire 2024 campaign on IR with the Bills.
Head coach Sean McDermott told reporters Monday that Buechele will be out for an extended amount of time after sustaining a neck injury in Saturday's 33-6 preseason loss to the Bears, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports. Buechele took over under center in the second half of Saturday's contest after Josh Allen and Mitch Trubisky handled snaps in the first half. Buechele finished the contest completing six of 10 passes for 53 yards and one interception while adding 22 rushing yards on three carries. The Bills brought in Ben DiNucci to take snaps with the second- and third-team offenses while Buechele is sidelined.
