Busy Bills in process of shuffling salary with Tuesday moves

The Buffalo Bills were the NFL's busiest team Tuesday, making a series of moves that will allow them to get under the NFL's salary cap by next Wednesday's deadline.

The team assigned left tackle Cordy Glenn the non-exclusive version of the franchise tag, costing $13.7 million against their adjusted 2016 salary cap of $159.737 million. With about $500,000 in projected cap space entering this week, that tag would put the Bills over their limit, necessitating that the team shed some salary.

That's exactly what the Bills did Tuesday by releasing defensive end Mario Williams, guard Kraig Urbik and running back Boobie Dixon.
