The Buffalo Bills entered the 2018 season with plenty of questions at the linebacker position. They had a second-year player aiming to build on a solid rookie season. They had a 20-year-old rookie manning the middle linebacker position. And they also had a wily veteran thought by many to be too old to play a majority of the snaps on defense, too slow to cover players, and too ill a fit at the strong side linebacker position to be a three-down player in the modern NFL.
Heading into the 2019 season, the Bills have far fewer questions at the position, thanks mostly to the strong campaigns by the aforementioned trio of starters.
