Bills newest wide receiver says he’s ready to explode

The Buffalo Bills' wide receiver room has gone from scarce to crowded in a hurry. 

With Elijah Moore now on the books and seventh-round draft selection, Kaden Prather set to compete for a spot on the depth chart in camp, Josh Allen suddenly finds himself with an abundance of pass catchers at his disposal, which includes former Los Angeles Charger, Josh Palmer. 

The former third-round pick, who signed a three-year deal with the Bills in mid-March, told One Bills Live on Tuesday that he’s already learning the offense and is ready to explode. 

“I’ve just been getting better every year. I feel like my first few years there with Keenan (Allen) and Mike (Williams), and my receiver coach out there, I was able to find my game and figure out what works and doesn't work,” Palmer said. 

“I got to my second and third year and everything started to take shape. Last year was what it was, and now I’m here ready to explode.”

Palmer, who finished with 39 receptions for 584 yards last year with the Chargers in somewhat of a backseat role, figures to play a vital role as an outside receiver for the Bills, who have already lost Mack Hollins and soon-to-be Amari Cooper to free agency.
