QUINTIN MORRIS NEWS

Won't be tendered The Bills will not place their franchise tender on Morris, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Morris was eligible to be tendered by Buffalo as a restricted free agent, but he's now slated to become an unrestricted free agent. Rapoport adds that the Bills would still like to re-sign him on a new deal. The 6-foot-2 tight end collected 15 passes for 146 yards and mostly played on special teams over the last three seasons.

Nabs five catches in 2024 Morris finished the 2024 regular season with five catches on eight targets for 36 yards and a touchdown over 16 games.

Impact For the third straight season to begin his career, Morris saw more work on special teams than on offense, though he did log over one-third of Buffalo's offensive snaps in four of the team's final eight regular-season contests. His role diminished again in the playoffs, however, as Morris recorded just 12 offensive snaps without any targets over three games. Morris is now slated to be a restricted free agent, and if he's back with the Bills, he'll likely continue to have a minor role on offense given that both Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox are in line to head the team's tight end corps again in 2025.

Good to go Sunday Morris (shoulder/groin) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Lions.

Impact Morris was deemed questionable with shoulder and groin issues on Friday's injury report. But, he'll make his return to action after missing last week's loss to the Rams due to these issues. Across 12 appearances this season, Morris has logged two catches, including one touchdown, on just three targets. He'll continue to back up Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox on Sunday.

Full go for Wednesday Morris (shoulder/groin) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's walkthrough practice.

Impact Despite practicing in full Friday, Morris was sidelined for the Bills' Week 14 loss to the Rams due to shoulder and groin injuries. However, Wednesday's estimated full practice suggests that he's already recovered from the issues. Expect the Bowling Green product to serve as Buffalo's No. 3 tight end in a Week 15 matchup against the Lions, playing behind Dalton Kincaid (knee) and Dawson Knox.

Ruled out Sunday Morris (shoulder/groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup versus the Rams.

Impact Morris was a limited participant in practice throughout the week but will end up being unable to play Sunday. The Bills will be shorthanded at tight end as Dalton Kincaid (knee) out as well, and as a result, Dawson Knox and Zach Davidson will both likely see increased roles.

Questionable for Sunday Morris (shoulder/groin) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Rams.

Impact The Bowling Green product appears to be trending toward playing ahead of Sunday's contest, as he upgraded from limited practice Thursday to a full session Friday. Morris could see a larger offensive role if he can play through his injuries in Week 14, especially with Dalton Kincaid (knee) also listed as questionable. Dawson Knox is currently the only tight end on the Bills' active roster without an injury designation for Sunday.

Logs limited practice Thursday Morris (shoulder/groin) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice session.

Impact Morris was estimated as a limited participant during Wednesday's walkthrough, and the 25-year-old tight end remained restricted during Thursday's practice. He would be able to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams if he is able to log a full practice Friday. Morris caught his lone target for 14 yards while playing 38 snaps (23 on offense, 15 on special teams) during the Bills' Week 13 win over the 49ers. Morris has seen a significant uptick in offensive snaps over the Bills' last three games due to Dalton Kincaid (knee) being sidelined.

Impact Morris played 38 total snaps (23 offensive and 15 on special teams) and caught his only target for 14 yards in the Bills' Week 13 win over the 49ers. However, he's dealing with shoulder and groin issues following Sunday's game. He could be in jeopardy of missing Buffalo's Week 14 matchup against the Rams if he's unable to upgrade to full practice Thursday or Friday.

Catches TD in Week 9 Morris caught his only target for a two-yard touchdown in Sunday's 30-27 win against Miami.

Impact Morris logged just eight offensive snaps in the victory, but he made an impact with a two-yard touchdown catch midway through the fourth quarter to break a 20-20 tie. That reception was the 25-year-old's first catch and first target of the campaign. With that in mind, Morris is not on the fantasy radar as he sits behind both Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox on Buffalo's tight-end depth chart.

Stuck in limited role Morris didn't draw a target while playing three of the Bills' 55 snaps on offense in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Titans.

Impact Morris has suited up for all seven of the Bills' games but has yet to draw a target in the passing game. He hasn't played more than nine snaps on offense in any contest.

OCTOBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

No targets through three games Morris played nine of the Bills' 64 snaps on offense and didn't draw a target in Monday's 47-10 win over the Jaguars.

Impact Even though the big margin of victory allowed the No. 3 tight end to see a slight uptick in playing time after he joined the offense for six plays in both of the first two games of the season, Morris still went without a target for the third straight contest. While both Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox are healthy, Morris won't have a path to a meaningful role on offense, but Morris is locked into a key role on the Bills' special-teams units.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared from injury Morris (shoulder) will be a full participant during practice Wednesday, Chris Brown of the Bills Radio Network reports.

Impact Morris suffered the injury in a preseason contest against the Steelers, but he should be good to go as Week 1 prep for Sunday's season opener against the Cardinals picks up. The third-year pro typically doesn't see much action on offense, but his ability to suit up would at least strengthen the team's depth at tight end, while the Bowling Green product is also a regular on special teams.

Suffers shoulder injury Saturday Morris hurt his shoulder in Saturday's preseason game against Pittsburgh and has been ruled out from returning.

Impact Morris caught two of four targets for 20 yards prior to going down with the injury. While he's well behind Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox in Buffalo's tight-end pecking order, Morris is a strong favorite to make the squad as the team's third tight end if he is healthy. He's seen more work on special teams than on offense during his first two NFL campaigns.

Returns to limited practice Morris (ankle) will be a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

Impact Morris has missed the past two games due to an ankle injury, so it's encouraging to see him back on the practice field to begin Week 9 prep, even in a limited capacity. With Dawson Knox (wrist) on injured reserve, Morris would operate as the No. 2 tight end behind rookie Dalton Kincaid if the Bowling Green product makes his return Sunday against the Bengals.

NOVEMBER 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Thursday Morris (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers.

Morris' next chance to see game action will arrive Nov. 5 against the Bengals.

Misses Tuesday's practice Morris (ankle) was a non-participant in Tuesday's practice.

Impact Morris, who has been dealing with an ankle issue, was inactive for Buffalo's Week 7 loss to the Patriots, and it seems as if his injury could hold him out even longer. The 24-year-old has now recorded consecutive DNPs during Monday's walkthrough and Tuesday's practice. Morris has an opportunity to play behind Dalton Kincaid as the Bills' No. 2 tight end if he's able to suit up Thursday, as Dawson Knox is slated to undergo wrist surgery.

Listed as non-participant Monday Morris (ankle) was listed as a non-participant in Monday's walk-through, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Morris was inactive for Sunday's game against New England, and it's unclear if he'll be able to return to action for Thursday night's game against the Buccaneers. Morris' status for the contest gains added import with Dawson Knox slated to undergo wrist surgery. For now, the Bills' top healthy tight end is Dalton Kincaid, with Joel Wilson a candidate to be elevated from the team's practice squad ahead of Week 8 action.

Still unable to practice Morris (ankle) will not participate at practice Thursday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Morris couldn't manage to participate in Wednesday's walkthrough either, and at this point he's trending toward sitting out in Week 7. He'll probably need to practice in some capacity Friday to give himself a chance to suit up Sunday at New England.
