The New England Patriots’ biggest division rivals, the two-time reigning AFC East champion Buffalo Bills, were expected to add an intriguing free agent to their already explosive offense. Running back J.D. McKissic was reportedly planning to a sign a two-year, $7 million contract with the team.
However, McKissic apparently had a change of heart. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, he will not join the Bills and instead return to the Washington Commanders on a new deal with identical compensation.
After spending his first four seasons in Seattle and Detroit, McKissic joined the Commanders in 2020 and became a productive player for the team.
