Saturday Sports Update
Top: The Buffalo Bills turned in an impressive preseason performance at Bank of America Stadium on Friday, defeating the Carolina Panthers 27-14 in their second preseason game of 2019. Josh Allen (left) played for just two offensive series but was very efficient, completing 9 of 11 passes for 102 yards and led the Bills to points on both drives. Meanwhile, free agent pickup Kevin Johnson (right) provided the highlight of the night for the Bills, running back an interception 70 yards for touchdown in the 2nd quarter.
