According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Buffalo Bills are set to release running back Nyheim Hines later this week. The move would clear $4.66 million in cap space, which would inch the Bills closer to salary cap compliance with the 2024 league year inching closer.
Hines, 27, was acquired via trade from the Indianapolis Colts at the trading deadline in 2022. Buffalo dealt fellow running back Zack Moss and a conditional sixth-round 2023 draft choice for Hines. In nine games with the Bills, Hines was a non-factor on offense, carrying just six times for -3 yards and hauling in five receptions for 53 yards and a touchdown on nine targets.
