Buffalo Bills Release Cornerback for Second Time in Three Days

  Buffalo, NY – The Buffalo Bills have been dealt a devastating blow to their defensive line rotation just days before the season kicks off, losing a young defensive tackle to a season-ending injury. The setback came during a midweek practice, when the lineman went down with what initially appeared to be a minor issue. Further testing, however, confirmed the worst possible outcome for Buffalo. Reports have now revealed that DeWayne Carter , the Bills’ promising young defensive tackle, tore his Achilles and will miss the entire 2025 campaign. The brutal injury robs him of what was set to be a breakout year. Sources: #Bills DT Keondre Coburn tore his Achilles and will miss the entire 2025 season. The talented interior defender was expected to play a vital depth role behind Buffalo’s starting tackles, giving the team added strength against both the run and in rotational pass-rushing packages. In a message posted on X after the diagnosis, Coburn remained resilient despite the crushing news, writing: “This is all a part of my testimony. I will be back. John 13:7.” The injury is particularly tough considering Buffalo’s Week 1 showdown against the New York Jets looms just around the corner. Without Coburn, the Bills will rely more heavily on rookies and veterans in the trenches to pick up the slack. The team does have options, with younger linemen ready to step up and the potential to elevate a veteran from the practice squad if needed. Still, Coburn’s absence significantly weakens Buffalo’s defensive front. For a franchise chasing its long-awaited Super Bowl glory, losing Coburn before he even takes the field in 2025 is a heartbreaking setback. The Bills will now test their depth early against a high-powered Jets offense.
