The Buffalo Bills are knee-deep into the team’s 2026 offseason program

Like all NFL teams, the Buffalo Bills have entered that crucial time of year when team building takes center stage. It's the offseason, and while the pads aren't on yet, the intensity is already brewing. Every year around now, Bills players gather for a good old-fashioned tug-of-war—a battle for nothing more than bragging rights. But as a recent video from Buffalo's social media team reveals, there's a lot more going on beneath the surface than just Thursday's lighthearted fun.

First up, tight end Dalton Kincaid appears to have bulked up—and he's moving without a knee brace. That's no small detail. Kincaid has been dealing with lingering effects from a PCL injury to his left knee since the 2024 season, and seeing him running around almost immediately in the video is an encouraging sign. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. The Bills will likely continue to handle him with care, managing those knee issues with caution throughout the 2026 campaign. Knee ligaments aren't one-size-fits-all, and Kincaid's role in the offense has limited his recovery so far. Still, this is a step in the right direction.

Then there's Landon Jackson, who also looks bigger—in all the right ways. There's been chatter about him moving "inside" along the 3-4 defensive front, a shift that could play to his strengths. But Jackson remains a project after a lost rookie season, and while the potential is there, he's still finding his footing.

Perhaps the most eye-catching figure is O'Cyrus Torrence, the team's starting right guard. The man has clearly put in serious work on his physique. His quads could make an Olympic sprinter jealous, and his arms are so defined they make you question whether he's a guard or a bodybuilder. Torrence is hungry for a second contract, and this level of dedication to his health could pay off big for his future with the Bills.

And don't forget Keon Coleman. The much-criticized wide receiver is looking to shake off the cold shoulder from fans and critics alike. With the offseason in full swing, he's got a chance to prove he belongs. The tug-of-war might just be a game, but for these players, every moment counts.
