The Buffalo Bills opened training camp Wednesday with almost their full roster on the field, but wide receiver Tyrell Shavers began camp on the physically unable to perform list. His status reflects the continued recovery from the torn ACL he suffered during Buffalo’s playoff run last season.
Shavers’ placement on the PUP list means the Bills are taking a careful approach as he works back from a major knee injury. An ACL tear typically requires a lengthy rehab process, so the move is not unexpected as camp gets underway.
For Buffalo, the update centers on depth at wide receiver while Shavers continues his recovery. With most of the roster available at the start of camp, the team can move forward with early practices while monitoring his progress.
The main takeaway from the Bills’ opening day is that Shavers remains in rehab mode after the postseason injury. His return timeline will depend on how he responds as training camp continues, but Buffalo has officially opened camp with the receiver still sidelined.
