Brandon Beane updates Micah Hyde’s status from Bills training camp
The door remains open for Micah Hyde, according to Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane. The Bills GM spoke via video conference at the start of 2024 training camp. Hyde is still not present summer workouts, but it’s still an option for him as far as Beane is concerned.

Beane said Hyde is “staying ready,” but it does not sound like Hyde intends on returning to football just yet. Hyde noted this offseason that if he does come back to the NFL, it will be only be in Buffalo.

Stefon Diggs is already making the Bills regret trading him in Texans camp
Months later, and I still don't understand what the Buffalo Bills were thinking.
