The Bills made their cuts Friday, and outside linebacker Manny Lawson is among those who will not wear a Bills uniform when the regular season begins. Lawson and fullback Jerome Felton headlined the team's cuts.
Bottom right: A big trade has been made today in the NFL. Desperate for a starting quaterback after a devastating knee injury to Teddy Bridgewater, the Minnesota Vikings have acquired Sam Bradford in exchange for two draft picks.
