Bills Sign T Jude Bowry, Complete Draft Class Deals
Jude Bowry signed his rookie contract with the Bills on Friday, per a team announcement. As a result, every member of Buffalo’s 2026 draft class is now on the books.
Bowry spent his entire four-year NCAA career at Boston College. That span included 23 starts across 31 games. He spent most of his time on the left side of the offensive line but saw work at both left and right tackle along the way. A role as Buffalo’s swing tackle could be in store upon entry into the NFL for the fourth-rounder.
Longtime blindside blocker Dion Dawkins remains under contract with the Bills for the next two seasons. Right tackle Spencer Brown, meanwhile, has three years remaining on his current deal. A path to a starting role may not open in Bowry’s case for the foreseeable future barring a move to the inside as a result. In any case, he will aim to offer low-cost depth along the offensive line over the course of his four-year rookie pact.
The Bills entered Friday with $9.81MM in cap space. This Bowry signing will not make a considerable impact on that figure, however. As a result, further roster moves – such as the ones worked out yesterday – will still be possible during the period leading up to training camp.
