The second-year cornerback is expected to miss the entire 2026 season with the neck injury he suffered in Week 4 last year, which kept him out for the rest of the season.
If no other team claims Strong and he clears waivers, he will revert back to the Bills and is expected to be placed on Injured Reserve, which would officially end his 2026 campaign.
The Bills also waived wide receiver Gabriel Benyard, and waived running back Desmond Reid with an injury designation. Both were 2026 undrafted free agents.
The team also brought back wide receiver Max Tomczak, who was originally signed as an undrafted free agent, but was waived last month.
Additionally, the Bills signed wide receiver Deven Thompkins to the roster. Thompkins was at minicamp on a tryout basis this week, but turned in the play of the day on Wednesday.
Bills minicamp Play of the Day may have come from tryout WR Deven Thompkins, who got loose deep and laid out to catch the ball thrown from Shane Buechele. Offensive sideline with a bunch of “ooooooohs!!!”
