Terrelle Pryor Reportedly Released by Bills After 2 Games

Terrelle Pryor's tenure with the Buffalo Bills is over after two games.

The Bills released Pryor on Tuesday after he tallied two receptions for 17 yards with the franchise, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. He was targeted three times in Sunday's win over the New York Jets but did not record a catch. 

The Bills signed Pryor on Oct. 30 after the Jets released him following a six-game stint. He had been dealing with a groin injury at the time of his release but said he felt underutilized in New York.

"I can ball," Pryor told reporters Oct. 31. "I can ball, bro. I'm not being cocky. I just know how I study, how I work, and how I practice. I compete at a high level. I expect high things from myself."

The last two seasons have been major disappointments for Pryor, a converted quarterback who broke out with the Cleveland Browns in 2016. He recorded 77 receptions for 1,007 yards and four touchdowns as a singular bright spot in a 1-15 Cleveland season.

Washington signed Pryor to a one-year contract after he turned down multiyear offers, a move that backfired. Pryor had only 20 receptions for 240 yards and one touchdown in nine games with Washington.

The Bills have been making roster adjustments the last two days, first releasing quarterback Nathan Peterman on Monday before jettisoning Pryor on Tuesday. Buffalo put together a season-best performance in its 41-10 rout of the Jets as Matt Barkley took over at quarterback.
