Bills place TE Knox and OLs Brown, Van Pran-Granger on injury lists day before opening training camp

The Buffalo Bills placed veteran tight end Dawson Knox on the non-football injury list on Tuesday in a series of roster moves made the day before the team opens training camp in suburban Rochester, New York.

The Bills also placed starting right tackle Spencer Brown and backup offensive lineman Sedrick Van Pran-Granger on the physically unable to perform list. The team did not disclose the nature or severity of the players’ injuries, with coach Sean McDermott scheduled to address reporters before the opening practice on Wednesday.

The moves were noted on the NFL’s daily transaction list, and came on the day Bills veterans reported for camp at St. John Fisher University.

All three players are eligible to be activated off their respective lists once they pass their physicals.

In separate moves, the Bills activated rookie defensive end Landon Jackson off the physically unable to perform list. The team also signed receiver David White and tight and Matt Sokol, while releasing punter Jake Camrada and receiver Kelly Akharaiyi.

Sokol has appeared in eight career NFL games over three seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers and New England Patriots. He spent parts of last season on Pittsburgh’s practice squad.

Camrada’s departure leaves the Bills with Brad Robbins as the team’s only punter entering camp. The team has an opening at the position after releasing veteran Sam Martin in March.
