In an appearance with One Bills Live, president of football operations/general manager Brandon Beane took time to discuss a variety of topics with co-hosts Chris Brown and Steve Tasker. Among a few rather interesting nuggets was the news that starting right tackle Spencer Brown has agreed to a restructured contract with One Bills Drive.
Beane mentioned that the team had just “sent it in yesterday,” regarding Brown’s restructured paperwork, and that the team will “get some money back” to use in free
agency and elsewhere for the 2026 NFL season.
Depending on if all bonus conversions were leveraged by Beane and company, Brown’s restructured contract could free up anywhere between $6 million and $10 million dollars. In looking at Brown’s contract numbers from Spotrac, leveraging all their options here would leave the Bills with ~$13 million they can restructure. That would result in a figure of $2.6 million counting in 2026 and the remaining $10.4 million set to count in the future. It’s therefore likely that Buffalo has lowered Brown’s 2026 cap number by roughly $10.4 million.
