Trying to figure out the Bills ’ receiver room right now is like staring into a depth-chart crystal ball that keeps fogging up. The Bills’ top three wideouts for 2025 look pretty locked in: Khalil Shakir , Keon Coleman , and Joshua Palmer . But behind them? There are four quality receivers, with only two (maximum three) spots. And Sean McDermott is swallowing an Advil as we speak.
Behind the top three, it’s a total free-for-all. That’s when the migraine of $600K hits McDermott. The Bills usually keep five receivers, maybe six, which means behind the top three, it’s basically four guys fighting for two or three spots: Curtis Samuel , Elijah Moore , Tyrell Shavers , and Laviska Shenault .
Samuel’s the real flashpoint here. He’s got a $6.91M base salary locked in for 2025
