Bills releasing Jordan Poyer and Mitch Morse. Tre’Davious White also will be cut, AP source says

Associated Press  

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — The Buffalo Bills underwent a drastic makeover on Wednesday, with salary cap constraints forcing the four-time AFC East defending champions to cut into their core by releasing five players, including safety Jordan Poyer and center Mitch Morse. The Bills saved another $8.6 million in cap space by restructuring edge rusher Von Miller’s contract, a second person with direct knowledge of the deal told the AP. Add in receiver Stefon Diggs and left tackle Dion Dawkins, and the three players’ total of $91.5 million makes up nearly 35% of Buffalo’s $255.4 million cap limit. Morse expressed surprise when asked if he might be cut a day after the Bills’ season ended following a 27-24 loss to Kansas City in a divisional round playoff game.
