After an impressive second half to the 2023 NFL regular season, the Buffalo Bills headed into the NFL playoffs, having won the AFC East division and being dubbed a legitimate Super Bowl title contender, with their sights set on taking down the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs.
Josh Allen and company got off to a solid start to the postseason by getting the best of the Pittsburgh Steelers in some frigid conditions at Highmark Stadium in Buffalo, but then Patrick Mahomes and company came to town and pulled off the slight upset on the road, resulting in another disappointing end to the playoffs for the Bills.
Heading into the NFL offseason, it was back to the drawing board once again for the Bills, as they’ve got to figure out a way to get the best of the Chiefs in the postseason, which has been a challenge on an annual basis for Buffalo.
That said, the free-agency period will be important for the Bills as they want to upgrade their roster on both sides of the football and intend to do so by bringing in safety Julian Blackmon for a visit, according to Jordan Schultz of Bleacher Report.

In four seasons with the Indianapolis Colts, Blackmon recorded seven interceptions, 17 passes defensed, two forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, 1.0 sacks, one defensive touchdown, and 163 solo tackles.
It’ll be interesting to see if the Bills can land Blackmon and what else they intend to do moving forward, with the 2024 NFL Draft right around the corner.
