Positive signalRole

Dortch elevated as Bills' punt returner with elite return average and YAC upside.

Elevated from practice squad for Week 1 vs. Houston and will serve as the Bills' punt returner; brings 99 career NFL punt returns with 11.6 yards-per-return average last season (tied for seventh-best in football), having raised his average in each of the last four seasons. Also provides value as a receiver—Buffalo kept five wideouts on its 53-man roster and elevated Dortch as the sixth; he has 145 career catches for 1,310 yards with excellent YAC metrics: 25 forced missed tackles over the past two seasons on just 79 targets and 66 receptions.
