Shane Buechele - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Rejoins Bills' practice squad Buffalo signed Buechele to the practice squad Wednesday.

Impact Buechele spent the majority of the 2025 regular season on the Bills' practice squad, and he now returns to the unit as Buffalo prepares to begin the postseason with a wild-card round matchup against Jacksonville on Sunday. Due to being poached by Kansas City late December, Buechele got an opportunity to play the second half of the Chiefs' regular-season finale against the Raiders in Week 18, in which he completed seven of 14 passes for 88 yards while rushing once for four yards. He served as Kansas City's backup quarterback for the final two games of the regular season.

Cut loose by Kansas City The Chiefs waived Buechele on Monday, Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com reports.

Impact Buechele spent the majority of the 2025 season on the Bills' practice squad before being signed to the Chiefs' active roster in late December. He served as Kansas City's backup quarterback for the final two games of the regular season behind Chris Oladokun, but Buechele ended up playing in the second half of Sunday's regular-season finale against the Raiders, when he completed seven of 14 passes for 88 yards while adding a four-yard carry. Assuming he clears waivers, Buechele will have the opportunity to reunite with the Bills on the practice squad or join another playoff team in need of a scout-team quarterback.
