The Buffalo Bills have made a change to their wide receiver room this week, cutting a veteran in a move made this Thursday.
The team took to social media to announce WR Quintez Cephus’s release and safety Dee Delaney’s signing.
“We’ve signed S Dee Delaney and released WR Quintez Cephus,” the Bills shared via Twitter/X.
Cephus joined the Bills as a free agent at the end of last month, having returned from an indefinite suspension that cost him the entire 2023 season. The 26-year-old was recently reinstated after a ban for violating the NFL’s gambling policy, but he will need to find another team following this latest development.
The former Wisconsin star played 22 games for the Detroit Lions between 2020-2022, making 37 catches for 568 yards and four touchdowns on 60 targets.
He registered 15 yards in three games before a foot injury forced him to the injured reserve, ending his campaign prematurely in October 2022.
Following his return to the league, Cephus appeared to find the perfect team, given that the Buffalo Bills could use all the receiving help they could get in the wake of Stefon Diggs’ and Gabe Davis’ departures.
However, the team signed former Kansas City Chiefs wideout Marquez Valdes-Scantling to a one-year deal this week, so he is now set to search for a new home.
The Bills have also signed Curtis Samuel to a three-year deal earlier in the year, also drafting Keon Coleman with the No. 33 overall pick after trading down in a deal with the Chiefs.
Buffalo Bills Fill Roster Spot With New Signing
As mentioned above, the Bills announced the signing of a new safety in Dee Delaney on Thursday.
Delaney played 49 games over the last three seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, making 25 tackles, five pass breakups, and two interceptions last season. He allowed 6.6 yards per target.
The safety was involved in a career-high 440 snaps on defense in 2023 but was mostly with special teams during the playoffs.
Social Media Is Going Wild After The Los Angeles Chargers Took Direct Aim At Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce In Their 2024 Schedule Release Video

The Los Angeles Chargers’ social media admin has moved up several notches in most people’s books following the hilarious video they put out to announce their 2024 schedule.
The Chargers made a special Sims edit replete with funny animated references to all the teams they’ll face next season. And with AFC rivals, the Kansas City Chiefs, set to play them twice, there was lots of room for trolling.
The clip pokes fun at Travis and Jason Kelce’s ‘New Heights’ podcast, Travis’ relationship with Taylor Swift, and the pop star’s private jet.
They also show infamous fan ChiefsAholic, now imprisoned for bank robbery, in court.
The Los Angeles Chargers Went After Harrison Butcker Too
Perhaps the funniest reference came at the expense of kicker Harrison Butker, who has been in the news for a recent commencement speech in which he spoke on Pride Month, transgender folk, and traditional roles for women.
Butker implied that women should stay away from the workforce and embrace their roles as homemakers.
“I can tell you that my beautiful wife, Isabelle, would be the first to say that her life truly started when she began living her vocation as a wife and a mother. I’m on this stage, and able to be the man I am, because I have a wife who leans into her vocation,” he said.
Well, the Los Angeles Chargers put him in the kitchen.
The video, shown in full above, also mocks Cam Newton’s fight, the Atlanta Falcons drafting Michael Penix Jr. after signing Kirk Cousins, and the end of the New England Patriots glory years, among many other funny references.
