The Buffalo Bills have finalized their offseason plans, including a return to St. John Fisher University for training camp. According to Mike Catalana of 13WHAM, the team intends to continue its long-standing tradition of holding training camp at the university near Rochester, New York. Although the Bills have not officially announced the details, Catalana shared that the schedule will likely resemble previous years, with training camp likely running from late July to early August.
For over two decades, the Bills have hosted their training camp at St. John Fisher, even as many teams have opted to bring their camps back to team facilities. The team’s consistent choice to return to this location highlights the bond they have built with the community and the fans in the Rochester area. As Catalana reported, the team’s stay at the campus typically lasts until the early days of the preseason before they head back to Buffalo for the final phase of training.
This offseason is particularly important for the Bills after their recent loss in the AFC Championship Game against the Kansas City Chiefs. The team is aiming to strengthen its chemistry and team bonding, with quarterback Josh Allen taking a leadership role. Allen has been praised by teammates, including veteran offensive tackle Dion Dawkins, for his efforts in bringing the team together, particularly during OTAs.
The Bills experienced significant changes in the previous offseason, parting ways with notable players such as wide receivers Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis, and safety Jordan Poyer. Despite these changes, Allen helped the new players bond, including organizing a training trip to Nashville. Tight end Dalton Kincaid noted that Allen’s leadership played a key role in strengthening the team’s cohesion.
Fans attending training camp this year will have the opportunity to see Josh Allen, who earned the league MVP award last season. This recognition further emphasizes Allen’s leadership and impact on the Bills’ success, and fans are eager to see how the team continues to evolve as they prepare for the upcoming season.
