A familiar Buffalo Bills receiver will be ready for action once again rather soon, as head coach Joe Brady announced the team has opened the practice window for Tyrell Shavers this week.

Shavers tore his ACL in the Bills’ wild-card win over the Jaguars last January. After his surgery to repair the torn ligament, he’s been rehabbing ever since.

A former undrafted free

agent from San Diego State, who began his collegiate career at Alabama, Shavers slowly but surely worked his way onto the field for the Bills over the past two seasons.

He scored on his first NFL touch, a 69-yard catch and run in Buffalo’s regular-season victory over the Jets. The 6’4”, 211-pound Shavers emerged into a reasonably important role in 2025, as he caught 15 passes for 245 yards with a score on 38.9% of the offensive snaps during the regular season.

We’ll see how quickly Shavers can go from practicing again to being back on the field. The Bills have now three weeks to make a determination on that.
