While they struggled to find the right person to man the second cornerback spot last season, once they found their guy, the defense clamped down and excelled. At safety, the Bills are set in terms of their starting unit, but depth players will find themselves in a fierce competition for inclusion on the final roster. Today, we look at one of those depth players Thomas Sweeney Buffalo Bills Jersey , a player brought over to Buffalo from the Carolina Panthers who has been solid in a pinch. Here is our latest edition of “90 players in 90 days.”Name: Dean MarloweNumber: 31Position: SHeight/Weight: 6’1” 208 lbs. Age: 26 (27 on 7/25/19)Experience/Draft: 3; signed with Carolina as UDFA following 2015 NFL DraftCollege: James MadisonAcquired: Signed to Bills’ practice squad 12/17/17; signed reserve/future deal on 1/8/18.Financial situation (per Spotrac): Marlowe is in the final year of his two-year contract signed in 2018. The total value of the deal is $1,200,000, of which none is guaranteed. Marlowe’s cap number for 2019 is $645,000 if he makes the roster.2018 Recap: Marlowe looked like he could be the fourth safety coming out of the preseason, but he was beaten out by rookie Siran Neal and subsequently waived. After passing through waivers, Marlowe signed with Buffalo’s practice squad, and he was called into action for the Bills’ Week 5 tilt against the Tennessee Titans. He played every defensive snap in that game Infant Devin Singletary Jersey , 54 in total, helping the Bills’ defense clamp down in earning a gritty 13-12 victory. He had four tackles and a pass breakup in the game. Following the game, he was waived and re-signed to the practice squad, where he remained until December 12. He next appeared in Buffalo’s season finale, playing only on special teams in the team’s blowout victory over the Miami Dolphins.Positional outlook: Marlowe once again finds himself in a tough spot, as starters Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde are set for the third straight year. Veteran backup Rafael Bush is joined by Neal, who enters his second year, and fifth-round pick Jaquan Johnson. The team also signed undrafted free agent Abraham Wallace.2019 Offseason: Marlowe agreed to participate in teammate Micah Hyde’s charity softball game earlier this spring. (The game is in June.) Otherwise Devin Singletary Jersey Draft , little has been written about him.2019 Season outlook: It doesn’t look good for Marlowe, who will probably be left off the roster in favor of the two young players Buffalo has drafted over the last two seasons. He’s clearly behind the three veterans in Hyde, Poyer, and Bush, and whether Buffalo chooses to go with four or five safeties, the numbers just aren’t in his favor. A return to the practice squad isn’t out of the question, but Marlowe also may choose to move on if he is released again. Sam Darnold's return to the huddle for the Jets could come Sunday.The rookie quarterback will be monitored in practice this week before the team determines whether he will start against the Buffalo Bills. The first test will be whether he practices fully Wednesday when the Jets get back to work."That remains to be seen," coach Todd Bowles said during a conference call Monday. "I expect him to be out there. We'll evaluate him as he goes out there."Bowles said Darnold took "a great number" of snaps during practice last week and was healthy enough to play against Tennessee on Sunday. But Bowles and the Jets chose to start Josh McCown because the rookie would have some rust after missing two games.Darnold strained his right foot against Miami on Nov. 4 and hasn't played since."He was prepared Devin Singletary NFL Jersey , but you're not going to come in three days as a rookie and be fresh off your reads and not have any rust to go in a ballgame and play on Sunday after you've been out for two weeks," Bowles said. "You need some time to get your timing back and everything else."So, we'll continue to give him reps and when I think he's ready, he'll play."The Jets are 0-3 with McCown as the starter, with the 39-year-old QB throwing one TD pass and four interceptions 鈥?including one that sealed New York's 26-22 loss to Tennessee on Sunday. Darnold still leads the NFL with 14 interceptions, despite his three-game layoff.Last week, the No. 3 overall pick said he was eager to play again, but also acknowledged he learned quite a bit from watching rather than playing. That said Devin Singletary NFL Draft , the final four games would give Darnold significant experience and give him a chance to end his first NFL season on a positive note."I'll just see where he is from an accuracy standpoint, a timing standpoint, (and) a rust standpoint," Bowles said. "He's got to see plays and I had him only throwing three (days) last week. He did get better and everything was fine, but he'll get better even this week and then we'll make that determination on Sunday."
