The Buffalo Bills could be looking for another receiver in this year's free agency cycle.

With Gabe Davis facing the open market, the Bills have an opening alongside Stefon Diggs in the receiver room.

Bleacher Report suggests Detroit Lions pass-catcher Josh Reynolds as a potential option to replace Davis.

"Reynolds has never been a leading man, but he's been a successful contributor on multiple strong offenses, including the last two seasons with the Lions and the Los Angeles Rams from 2018-2020," Bleacher Report writes. "He's the kind of signing that will probably be a minor blip in news cycle in the spring but will play a crucial role for a team contending for the playoffs."

Reynolds, who turned 29 last week, caught 40 passes for 608 yards and five touchdowns for the Lions in 2023 ... arguably the best season of his seven-year career. Reynolds also caught eight passes for 132 yards and a touchdown during Detroit's NFC Championship run.

Getting Josh Allen as many weapons as possible has been the recent plan of attack for the Bills, and though it hasn't resulted in the team advancing past the AFC Championship yet, it still is the right path towards victory.

The Bills will also probably look towards the draft to find another target for Allen, but having a veteran with playoff experience could be key for Buffalo as they hope to get the monkey off their back next season.
